Yea, He made a point.Generally how a feel about those movies and shows. Never saw 12 years a slave, the butler none of that ? and never will. I gotta sit thru some ? historical take on how whites treated us like ? and then wait for the one or two white characters that has a change of heart and shows an act of kindness. Foh b. I don't ? with the whitewash ? like gods of Egypt or Exodus either.

Yeah I never seen none of that. I seen original Roots though. Dont know why its different except we watched it at school so I was there and it was on in class so I watched it guess thats the difference. That said personally I havent heard anything about it that made me think "boycott". I may watch it or not but thats my choice like everybody else. My threshold for boycotting and petitions and all that is high. Like Im not ? nilly with it it gotta be really extreme before Im thinking that. -
Can we get a movie on Mansa Musa or King Tut with black people playing these roles.
-
They showed some clips during the commercial breaks of the game.
It looks like it shows us fighting back more instead of constantly being victimized.
Nothing compelling enough to make me wanna watch though. -
Damn, I was gonna check this out..i aint seen the original, so.....

I agree 100% its not necessarily about boycotting for me I'm not gonna sit here and tell other people what they should or shouldn't watch but there's certain ? I don't ? with in film and television and have no problem explaining why. My Korean homie was telling me to check for gods of Egypt the other day and I had to break down exactly why that was never going to happen. -
Hell Nah, Snoop needs to put the blunt down.Lest we forget

Its not about boycotting or some kind of group think. You should just know and do better for self. -
I can see where he's coming from, the slave ? is overplayed. Though I think they should make a Tubman movie

Hell Nah, Snoop needs to put the blunt down.YES, SLAVE ISH IS OVERPLAYED, BUT SO IS A 40+ YEAR OLD GRAND DAD THAT STILL PROMOTES GANG LIFE

Lest we forget what? How we were slaves and we get the bio of the white guy that felt bad and didn't think it was right what was going on abd decided he had enough and was going to do something about it? Lol. Maaaaaannn.
Whatever entertains you I guess.

A movie about sundiata, Akhenaten, or even nzingha would be goat man. These Caucs don't want to see us in power, even on a semihistorical basis smh -
