If they want to make Merovingian Gaul look bad, there is plenty of material...Gregory of Tours' History of the Franks to begin with.
I had not heard it was that extreme. In other words, Haley was a black Hillary Clinton (without the dead bodies)?
The cultural revolution means never being able to learn about dead white males again.
Hollywood is intellectully bankrupt—it is reduced to making the same movies over and over and over again.
He sold a bill of goods. Got sued a couple of times over it.
“But here we go again. Crappy history, lots of white guilt, and we get to go over it all again.”

After this one runs, I assume we’ll get another round of:
1. “ Why the Kennedys All Deserve Canonization”
2. “Healing the Nation Demands a Nixon Impeachment”, or “Better Late Than Never”;
3. “Necklacing for Justice”, the Mandela story;
4. “The Black Panther Food Giveaway” (marred only slightly by dozens
of purported murders;
5. “Was Malcolm the Frst Gen Xer?”
6. “Cesar Chavez, the musical”;
7. “Have You No Shame?”, or “How McCarthy Harassed Communists Who Were Only Joking About Subverting America”;
8. The Village of Mai Lai, 50 years Later”, aka “Scars Still Linger as Village Tries To Cope”.
The left never sleeps.
Oh, I agree. But as in all things, some self-restraint wouldn't hurt. Suppose you were a publisher, and I came to you with a draft of a book. It's an excellent chemistry text, so good you're sure to make a profit.
But there is a section on explosives, what they are and how they can made from common materials. I would hope that you, as the publisher, would do some editing there.
This morning there was an interesting talk held at the Woodrow Wilson Center about Capt. John Birch, the namesake of the John Birch Society, by someone who recently published a book about the man. Fascinating person--went to China in 1940 as a Baptist missionary, joined the US Army after Pearl Harbor, and was killed in August 1945 a few days after the news that Japan had surrendered, by some Communist Chinese troops.
In Sept. or Oct. 1950 (early in the Korean War, before the Chinese Communist entry), Sen. William Knowland of California made a speech in the Senate praising John Birch. Three years later Robert Welch happened to read the speech and went and met Birch's parents in Georgia and got Birch's mother's approval to publicize John Birch's story. It was 5 years later that he started the society.
GAG.
1st one wasn’t black enough.
Sorry, I am not understanding your answer. It’s funny, - definitely no internet back then - but I truly wanted to know if you meant that the guy playing Chicken George was going to work for the Trump campaign.
I’ve never seen it. Never will.
How interesting! It sounds very plausible that someone who heard of his search would indeed seek to satisfy it somehow. Guess we’ll never really know.
I had a music teacher that swooned over the series and was buying into all the white guilt. I watched parts of it - only because she encouraged me to - but I really didn’t have the time to devote to it, and never regretted missing most of it.
Yet Maryland just HAD to put a plaque on Annapolis wharf that this African dude arrived here blah blah blah. As if that is truly significant history anyway, if it were real.
No sir, that is not what I meant.
The Country is already riled up. Get ready for a long, hot summer.
Not to mention that it is over exaggerated hype. This Roots movie will have no good lasting value. Pure junk would be my guess.
I would like to see a movie made where the black servants and the white master got along and had happy lives. Some Balance would be nice. Hardly any slaves had their feet cut off. Just a guess.
You really think that b.s. Could make it through any congress?
Gotta keep stoking the flames. Obama has obliterated race relations. The Media loves the riots and looting of black mobs. They’ll keep it going as long as possible. Racial strife is very profitable.
