Does he know “Roots” is fiction? Haley made it all up not to mention he plagiarized the first part from a book named “The African” which is also fiction.

[Sans-Culotte]

Ditto.

[StAntKnee]

Sorry, I’d say, “Just kill me.”

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

That photo looks like a college kid today being indoctrinated “COMMUNISM IS UTOPIA! BERNIE IS THE MESSIAH!” How else to explain why so many millennials today support that jackass?

[BenLurkin]

Did you know Kunte Kinte had a sister who was a prostitute?

Her name was Renta Kunte.

[Mouton]

Well, if they run it backwards, it has a happy ending.

Years ago I actually talked with Alex Haley at a conference.
He seemed like a really nice guy. What the race hustlers miss about Roots is that it is a story of overcoming tragedy. It isn’t just how far former slaves have come but how far the US has come.

The rats force us, the gay agenda force us, the socialist force us, the communist force us, the BLM racist blacks force us, the illegal immigrants force us, and it only solidifies my stand ......FU

I’d have chosen death.

He should be strapped to a chair and forced to watch “Showboat!” for nine hours.....................

Mercy! At least throw in some "Porgy and Bess" between showings.

Imagine if it were a black woman and she was forced to watch ‘Gone With the Wind’ and ‘Song of the South’.

[EvilCapitalist]

Nah. He should be strapped to a chair and forced to listen to Rush everyday for a year. It might educate him. Of course if you want to torture him, strap him to a chair, and make the guy watch “The View.”

[dfwgator]

Or Woodrow Wilson’s favorite movie, “Birth of a Nation”.

[Red Badger]

He would enjoy The View................

[Red Badger]

Well, there were several different versions made and remade thru the years...............

[catnipman]

at least she wasn’t forced to watch “Moment By Moment” or “Heaven’s Gate” ...

[catnipman]

“After all, it is Black History month”

which chris rock joked was yet another ripoff of black people because february is the shortest month ...

[\/\/ayne]

Next he made her watch “Skin Game” with James Garner and Louis Gossett Jr.

[robowombat]

A forced watching of ‘Heaven’s Gate’ should be a capital offense. I went to see because it was playing at the real big screen theater, that and the huge amount of money spent on props, costumes and settings made that dead whale of a film at least pallatible.
