I've watched the movie many times - and grew up in a time when racism was rampant in the southeast - but just the opposite in much of the southwest where blacks were welcomed in most small towns I grew up in.

Today we have a society where 'racism' has been much reversed, with many blacks hating 'whitey' and committing crimes to demonstrate it.

Gone with the wind? I think not anymore...

***I’ve watched the movie many times -****

Do you remember the 1969 release when it was recut for WIDE SCREEN!

I saw it when it was supposed to be wide screen, but it was not.

A few months later I saw it in Little Rock AR, and it WAS in wide screen.

There was a problem. In one scene Scarlet goes to see Rhett in jail, an orderly walks up to a sitting Ward Bond, and tells him she is there to see Rhett.

OK, normal scene.

When I caught it in Wide Screen the soldier has NO HEAD!

They cut it off when they trimmed the 35 mm to wide screen by removing a strip at the top and bottom of the frame.

got that right, the racism by blacks today has got much worse in the last 4 years.
I knew it would back in 2008 when I heard some of them saying this is pay back, how you going to liek a brother and us running things, we get you back and a wholse host of other comments.

Since then racism has got much worse nad in mnay black communities they know how to play it and wear it with pride.

Do an experiment next time in the store.

There are two cashiers, one white one black.
Look where the black customers go.
I was at an event earlier this year and they had food wagons, burgers an all.

All the blacks were going to the black wagons whilst whites were going to whites and blacks.

They have been racist for so long they don;t even realize it and if they do then they do not care.

We can thank the left and the obama like fools for this.Oh and the media but then again the media is the left now.
