‘Roots’: fair cop. A big part of US history many were unfamiliar with.
But ‘Selma’ is the latest from the so-called civil rights movement as it plays the usual medley of its Greatest Hit (singular).
What may not be clear to the race bizzers is that the ritual of self-congratulation only brings into stark relief how their leaders have squandered their ‘victory’ in the 50 years following.
The greatest irony is all the rhetoric about bondage, freedom, self-determination, etc. in the 60s is rendered moot by the de facto enslavement of much of the black population by a political party with the eager help of black collaborators. A vote to eat tomorrow is really no vote at all, as the Democrats intended.
WHAT ? Roots was a fictional novel plagiarized from a novel about the persecution of the Jews by Nazis.
US was ignorant of slavery?”????????????????????????????????
