History Textbooks Do Not Tell the Truth About Slavery

Why the history textbooks hesitate to tell the truth about slavery In the movie Sankofa, Haile Gerima did not hesitate to present the fear of slavery to the audience. He not only showed a barbaric and humiliating habit the slave owner had enslaved the slaves but also showed how the slave owner uses Christianity to dominate and manipulate slaves. He showed the importance of reviewing slavery to understand the huge influence of slavery and society today and the present.

In our entertainment, only we can take it. Is it possible to make a movie about the absolute truth of slavery? In two terrible centuries of American history, is the individual larger than this institution? We can handle slaves for 12 years. But do not expect to become a slave in 60 years. In 200 years, millions of slaves? please forget about it. There are several things. For beginners, Smith-like writers will accuse Hollywood's slavery personalization if Hollywood makes a 200-year-old movie, millions of slaves. What? Have Hollywood not noticed what the real people suffered? Does Hollywood not realize that slavery evil exceeds statistics? Next, after 200 years millions of slaves are no longer films. The film focuses on individuals or groups of individuals. What do you think about the Smith project?
