Entire countries have come and gone in that time.

kente cloth. Used for celebrations and happy events. The whole kente cloth salve thing is just misleading and wrong.

Regardless, NP is an idiot no matter what she wears

[StayoutdaBushesWay]

They’ll probably disable fast-forward for that portion.

[ealgeone]

I have no doubt you will not be able to skip the “lesson”.

[Howie66]

Ms. Stewart is also silent about the Margaret Sanger inspired holocaust that is being conducted against the inner city Blacks by the DemocRAT Party through their “Planned Parenthood” arm. It’s pretty obvious to any thinking citizen that those Black Lives DO NOT Matter.

[Sam Gamgee]

OMG it’s a fictional movie. Even I think it paints the confederates too positively. Which lead me to take interest in the actual history. See - that’s what sane people do. They see a fictional movie, and apply a little grain of salt to it.

[Sam Gamgee]

Or 300. I mean was the King of the Persians really 10 feet tall? I’ve been hoodwinked!

Black lives ONLY matter if they're killed by white cops.

Last year 7000 blacks were slaughtered by black thugs. NOT ONE PROTEST occurred for ANY OF THE 7000.

Last year 9 unarmed black men were killed by police Seven of those deaths were justified.

And abortion? Abortion clinics ARE ALWAYS located near OR IN the black community. Slaughter and murder in the black community is not a problem unless it can be blamed on white people. If it's the fault of black thugs - those thugs get a pass.

The black community's the most violent ethnic group in the United States.

Black lives ONLY matter if they're killed by white cops.

That's why I say, "ALL Black Lives Matter", LOL, of course, they'll say that's as racist as "All Lives Matter".

kente cloth. Used for celebrations and happy events.

Yeah, 'happy events' like selling a boatload of slaves to slave traders... in the past... and for happy events like convincing idiot liberals that the only part of the slave trade that mattered was the part white people took part in...

[Captain Peter Blood]

Glad I own my copy and don’t have to listen to that crap.

[GOPJ]

The fact that more europeans where taken by babary pirates and enslaved exceeded the number that were captured by their neighbors and sold out of Africa and shipped to American is pretty much ignored. Butt, history-——meh!

Good point. Truth and history don't matter to liberal 'elites' unless it pushes their lie blacks are always 'victims' and whites are always 'racist'...

Lucky for the left the pretentious men and bimbos of the press are too stupid and weak to read anything outside their comfort zone...

[GOPJ]

Indeed; I’ve yet to see anyone in the media (even on Fox News) slamming the Kente stole stunt, which is a pro-black-slavery display.

FOX is run by liberals like Chris Wallace and Trump haters like Paul Ryan.

FOX thinks 'fair and balanced' Sunday Morning News Shows are 'every Sunday News Anchor' is a liberal who hates Trump - Wallace, Todd, Stephanopolis, and whoever sits in on NBC.(never once a conservative) - is 'fair'...

Tucker, Hannity, Jessie or Greg might mention the kente cloth truth ... but that's about it for FOX. FOX sucks less... that's about all that can be said about them.

Gone With The Wind is to be restored to the HBO Max streaming platform. Wonder how much of it has been edited?

Yeah, this is my worry. Glenn Reynolds over at Instapundit has said in previous posts that if you like a movie, get it now before some woke snowflake edits the guts out of it because they find it offensive.

Just today I ordered copies of 1776 and The Crossing, just so I could have them when I want to watch them again.

[PIF]

You are mistaken, perhaps reading faux history. The cloth was made long before firearms and the Portuguese slavers arrived, or even had a black seen a white person. Maybe someone made the association later- slavery was not what it meant and not means today.

Just stop the hating - or you’ll begin to look like the people u despise.

[Ezekiel]

When the movie was released in January 1940 the NAACP criticized McDaniel as an 'Uncle Tom.'

This gender confusion nonsense goes way back!

[Red Badger]

If they taught HISTORY correctly in our primary and secondary education bastions, then they wouldn’t need to pull it in the first place............................

[freepertoo]

You can’t fast forward.

[GOPJ]

You think I'm going to burn down cities or destroy statues I don't like? (That's what black thugs do)

Or loot stores if a white criminal is killed by a cop? (That's what black thugs do)

Or fake hate crimes against black citizens so I can make them look bad?(*That's what black thugs do)

The black community has problems... and a white person answering them back is NOT one of 'em. ______________________________________________ FAKE HATE CRIME http://www.fakehatecrimes.org/
