"To watch a strong man broken down is a terrible thing."
Ken Bolden that was a powerful quote
Yes. Sad
true
I love the fact that they took the name of a vile, disgusting movie.. and reconquered it as a story of justice and bravery. I love it.
Word.
@James Stephenson You should be more careful with your words, you uncultured swine. That movie is extremely important in the history of cinema, so be more respectful because you are clearly clueless AF.
@Zachary Laney word bitch
@@zacharylaney46 WUT?
It pretty much was guess your refering to all the cracker Jack wives and kids who were dealt with the same fate as the men were that Nat and his mob slaughter end of the day look up the numbers how many African American we omen were murdered during that time period and children heard stories of redneck pieces of shit feeding babies to alligators Nat did what he had to do to get his point across not like white slave owners listened any way after that they killed over 200 African Americans after Nat was hung
I love that quote, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." Gave me chills.
Dr mlk jr quote ❤️
@Zap Rowsdower funny thing is your whyte women like us black men more than they like you whytes 🤷♂️ guess the original birth of a nation didn’t do what you whyte men wanted it to do
Imaginary injustice from a people who cant make 1 proper civilization

Cant believe a movie like this has to be so controvercial yet a movie like brave heart or gladiator is deemed a classic multi award winning movie.
It remains as primitive as the Doll Experiment is to a child.
I can't believe the named it the same thing as a pro-KKK propaganda flick from a century prior.
As for the controversy, I think a lot of that might be due to when it came out. There's a lot of people going out of their way to rekindle the racism that was once dying out in the US.
If this movie had come out 10 years earlier, before the attempted resurrection of casual and overt bigotry, it would've probably would've been been received much better, such as how Glory was in its day.... Oh, and if you haven't seen Glory, I highly recommend it.
It's about one of the military units serving during the civil war and the racism of the era, including from their own military. There are some inaccuracies, of course(one of which an entire scene hinges on), but the general history is solid-enough.
It’s only controversial because right wing worms still exist
I saw the film at TIFF 2016, and I remember in the time leading up to the film's release, the press' coverage of controversy came from the sexual assault trial of the writer/director/star Nate Parker and his co-writer - look at the film's Wikipedia page and the articles it cites, might give some background
I agree
One of the first gun laws in the U.S. was to prevent black people from using firearms to defend themselves. Gives something to think about.
The Original Black Panther Party agrees

Comments like this are what further promote segregation and racial separation in this country.
+Freedom Child Explain, sounds fallacious reasoning
no1 cares about the old laws. America should ban guns altogether. thats the problem, america cling on to the past + nothi gets done.
Whether you're black or white or whatever, if you're an American, this is your history.
No this is a movie pretending to be history.
+The Cinema Cowboy no, it's history. I don't see anything fake about the plot.
I'll tell more specifically after seeing the movie, but at this point I really doubt it's history, most likely it's a heavy sugar-coating of an actual event.
Real-life Nat Turner called for killing almost every white person that his rebellion faced. They didn't even spare children. Fucking children! (c)
I doubt that it will be addressed in the movie at least in a way, that is historically accurate.
{GD} Phantom X ALT
So killing white children was OK is that what you're saying?
Grim Butcher I'm not saying it was ok. I'm saying that the degree of which he revolted was justified. He was driven nearly insane by the cruelty of the slave owners. Killing children is never acceptable, but if your enemy starts to do it, you might be a little fed up.
"Those Who Do Not Know Their History Are Doomed To Repeat It. You Have To Expose Who You Are So That You Can Determine What You Need To Become" - C.A. Patterson
I just want to burst out crying...his life was so miserable, who in their right mind wouldn't rebel?!...Some of the scenes were very artistic and spoke to me on so many levels...So beautiful and heart breaking :'( I rate 10/10
I do every time I watch.
If only someone outside the plantations offered the rebels all the guns and muskets they needed against the slave masters.
Would have been considered treason in those days and whoever done it would basically be no different than the slaves horrible time to be alive and as a white person u would like to say I would have helped but no one truly knows what they would do in that situation if you didn’t fall in with the program u was hated just as bad if not worse than a slave u seen what they did to Lincoln and he had a army behind him
If they hadn't been purchased by the white man, their black captors in Africa would have killed them. But the blacks didn't have any gratitude for the whites who saved them and refused to work most of the time, to do even simple things like picking cotton. Blacks today make it like it was so harsh. "Ooooh! The cotton weighs 2 ounces. It's too heavy for me to lift!".
@Zachary Laney Nat was unappreciative of being able to come to the US and given a full time job. Here, he had structure and purpose. In Africa he would have had none of that.
Here come all the racist trolls saying this is "another slavery movie". Besides this one, Django Unchained and 12 Years A Slave how many RECENT slave movies can you think of? Do you say that about all the comic book movies or romance movies? This merely shows history. And yes, slavery was a brutal part of American history. It also shows them rebelling against their oppressors. It's based on Nat Turner, a real person who lead a real slave revolt. And by the way, I say this as a white Italian American dude.
I understand where people are coming from though. American slavery and the American Civil War are concepts that are often explored in media, not just movies. I would enjoy something else, but I think the movie industry thinks that if they make a movie about anything more obscure than Vietnam, WW2, or the Civil War and slavery that people wouldn't want to watch the movie.
But I see no problem with this movie. I like the concept. I just do agree the media could broaden their horizons more when it comes to their portrayal of history. But I'm sure this will be a good movie and quite enjoyable.
Also note that when a movie like Gladiator or the Eagle comes out, they don't go "Oh, jeez, ANOTHER slavery movie, give me a break". They'll watch 4 seasons of Spartacus without complaint, but this trailer has them going "OH JEEZ STOP WITH IT ALREADY".
Carson Montgomery This isn't even a regular slavery movie though because it actually features a real slave revolt that happened. They could also make a Haitian Revolution movie about Toussaint Louverture too.
archfiendbaramos Also when they watch movies about the American Revolution, nobody ever says it's "promoting an anti-British agenda" but somehow racist people think this movie is "promoting an anti-white agenda".
You do know Nat Turner was a murderous monster right?
Some may dismiss this slavery era in history so easily and treat it as if it was something light hearted. The struggles and pains that slaves went through were too immense. Thinking about it all gets me so overwhelmed with emotion. Such a dark history...
I don’t think no one treats it lightly lol I don’t think people have a true awnser to give about what happened most people wasn’t alive back then and the people who benefited from it prolly would do it again if your white and poor basically u get tired of being blamed and white poor people hate rich people as much as blacks do
@@caseymckenzie3951 the oppressors do
Yea but there’s oppressors in every race slavery is still going on right now the Mexican cartels enslave and traffic people every day an that’s just one example slavery has went on since the beginning of time Moses had to lead people out of slavery in the Bible days and I’m sure it will like that until the end that’s y Jesus declared good news to the poor and oppressed this world is cursed and will be destroyed but god’s kingdom never ends
Slavers didn’t even get to enjoy it look at the people in this movie do the slavers look happy to you u would have to be miserable to treat people that way like the white man that slap his hands with that stick for trying to give something to the kid them people was full of hate u can’t be full of hate and happy at the same time it’s impossible there parents basically brainwashed them In to believing this was normal but believe it or not all slavers wasn’t that way god got there attention the guy who wrote amazing graze was on a ship beating slaves and god sent a storm that shook that boat and scared him in to repentance he got down on his knees and prayed to god and god spared him that’s y he wrote amazing grace 😂 look that story up god was around back then and if people acted to dumb he sent plagues on there crops and everything back then everyone believed in god so most people didn’t go to far I would say now is worse than then now people will kill u over a pair of shoes now abortion clinics run wide open times are just as dark now don’t be fooled racism isn’t the only form of evil
Africans still trade slaves to this day dipshit.
Amazing movie I can't believe in my life time I got to see a black president and a Nat Turner film. This movie should be shown in schools.
This movie hits you deep in your soul. This movie should have gotten an Oscar. We can't dismiss our history. Especially with what's going on. Love this Movie
They can go back to Africa. No one is stopping them
does the movie show the parts where he beheads the white babies?
@@doberman2ykshut up
@@doberman2yk It should’ve just shown it, just like when your ancestors feed blk babies to alligators.
An Oscar who cares about that award I mean I wanna win a golden globe imagie awards Emmys, because those are the awards that has the best competition the leads at the Oscars even supporting categories have been folks that's not really that impressive winning
This looks beautiful, and I love how they reuse the name of a 1915 anti-black film and repurpose it to empower people, and show the evil of that day.
Meanwhile everybody else was in the fantasy land of Wakanda. We didn't back this like we backed that.
Because we're tired of having all black movies be about slavery and gangsters. Black Panther offered something new and a good outlook on what our culture could become without the interruption of white people.
dai - who do you presume to speak for besides yourself?
@@darcielizabeth Shut the fuck up.
Probably had something to do with advertising
@Dai, yeah because "slavery" films made by WHITE FOLK - unlike this FREEDOM FIGHTER FILM made by a BLACK MAN - are the same things. THIS WAS OUR BLACK PANTHER, based ON A REAL SUPERHERO, not some WHITE MAN's fantasy of BLACK PEOPLE. WAKANDA is a damn joke.
This movie was supposed be nominated for an Oscar it was excellent I seen people cry in the theaters for the first time seen this when it first came out😊
Where to watch???
the trailer alone is so moving. this movie's gonna make me cry my eyes out.
Did they show Nat killing children?
Lee Lorenz Did they show your people killing million of black children ? Stupid fuck.

@@VentureHolly not just that look up the average lifespan of Vikings that played a major role, if we in morden times as men only lived to like 30 the world would be hell
Aaaand this movie pops back up again.
If you are White and you are offended by this movie or Nat Turner, don't see the need for this movie, or this movie makes you feel uneasy; you have some soul searching to do. I say this out of love and hope for the people of this country. A lot of people say that we have enough of these types of movies, but you never hear those grumbles about Holocaust films! It's really time for this country to DEAL with this pain, on both sides, and it's effects on the present so that we can move forward!
Like snoop dog ?
Not that i mind (movie looks good )
I am White and I do feel uneasy about a portrayal of a violent insurrection as a just event when translated to our world today. Violent insurrection is not what we need our Black countrymen to have on their minds today.
+Kurt Vanatta insurrectionary anarchism worked throughout history, and you're apologizing for a hierarchical system.
+Kurt Vanatta It is also not your place to tell what you need for Blacks to do, check your privilege.
Of course you hear those grumbles about Holocause films, you just aren't listening. I resent all forms of keeping old wounds fresh out of the sake of healing our "national consciousness." If it were for the people, why do these artist keep all the money? These things are products, and it's an outright fact that Hollywood has manipulated audiences for profits and benefits from racial division.
Less than 5,000 recorded lynchings in history and you've SHOT COUNTLESS MORE OF EACH OTHER since then. Where's the constant genre push of that little tidbit? If it's about healing, maybe you should appeal to each other to stop the killing, not keep 150 year old wounds VERY fresh in the minds of each new generation.
Of course the world of film has a right to tell a powerful story that resonate throughout history, but the pattern is way too transparent after all these years. No one benefits more from racism than Hollywood.
Had a fantastic experience on set. Nate is the coolest and most thoughtful directors I've ever dealt with and he really deserves all the attention he's going to get
the excuses to disown history is just fucking foul. only when a slave movie is released do people say "forget the past". not this time.
I think it's also the fact that some people are saying this is released at the absolute worst time, with the fact that race relations are plummeting because of what's going on. Not saying I'm against movies like these I mean I loved Django Unchained and that was kind of a bit similar about an African American slave going up against slave owners, but honestly, I think some people will claim this is just fanning the flames and push a race war further. I'm not saying I believe it but honestly people are just ready to start killing each other soon regardless.
Lmao @ 400 years ago!!! Do me a solid....look up Jim crow laws. Pay VERY close attention to the dates.... Look up news articles of hangings ...again pay attention to the dates. Now maybe you will understand why the issue is still so VERY fresh and offensive to blacks. lmao smh cheater ... less than 60 years
There are plenty of lsave movies with worthy heroes,not Nat turner.He's a monster.
Good then you better remember the trans-Mediterranean slave trade you fucking illiterate!
Learn your own history you ignorant uneducated racist pig. Learn about the trans-Mediterranean slave trade and the Moors invasion of Southern Europe you imbecile. No one is hunting blacks but if you want a race war THEN BRING IT ON!
the irony of so many people being triggered by a piece of artwork like a movie is kind of sad. get over yourselves its just a movie.
*****
i mean people pretending this is part of a conspiracy to make white people look bad. if showing the cultural context of the time and place is some how offensive to you then yes you are triggered. ps how the fuck do you know i am privileged when you know nothing about me?
no shit! when did i ever suggest the slaves depicted had it better than modern day youtube users? jesus christ you're full of yourself. thanks for pointing out the obvious and completely missing the point.
***** my bad.
Jama M Jama exactly its funny too troll tho lmao
The greater irony is that these are supposedly the same people who never get triggered and hate politically correct, and want things to be said "like it is"; they are supposedly the ones who fight against trigger warnings and hyper-touchy SJWs. Now of course, that only applies if its THEIR triggering and THEIR politically incorrect and THEIR "like it is" version.
it's interesting that slaves embraced Christianity. The religion that slave owners used to justify slavery.
Exactly
Ye but these slave knew that the slave owners were justifying it wrongly.
True, but slaves also used the Bible to argue against slavery.
Its interesting that all walks of life experienced slavery. Regardless of the religion that man wrote.
It wasn't the religion that made man evil. It was the choices of man. You see Christians today trying to enslave people? NO. Alright then.
Ouidah is a location, isn't it? Do you mean Vodun?
One day a movie involving race will be released and people will not feel divided - until that day its not a movie that's dividing us.. it's the fact that we are still simply divided.
preachhhh
Well said!
What's dividing us is injustice. Too many people are comfortable with our oppression.
Lea Leandre Did you seriously just say black people ARE, not WERE, but ARE oppressed?
When they stop having BET, Black college fund , Black congress coalition etc we will not be divided.
Why are people so butt hurt about the historical inaccuracies in this movie? Brave Heart was pretty inaccurate too and it won best picture!
It's almost as if they forgot that they were watching a movie and that all biopics have historical inaccuracies. People look for any excuse to be outraged.
tom S. you understand its just a movie if they want the full story they can go read the book about it
Servo Because this shit wants to portray a genocidal maniac as a hero. Well he wasn't, he was a maniac who killed little kids and also raped white women. None would have him so it lead to frustrations. White women back then stayed away from black people.
braveheart was stupid and unwatchable to anyone with any real knowledge of that period of history.
Plenty of people ragged on the inaccuracies of Brave Heart, too. A well-written story can make up for some of that.
Hell, one of the best period piece movies, Glory, had a major scene that required multiple historic inaccuracies to make happen.
Though, there's a key difference between telling a story with some embellished or altered details and telling one with significant revisions that fundamentally change the story on a major scale.
This film shoulda got a lot of awards.
I remember going to the theatre years ago to watch the original Birth of a Nation when it first came out, this one should bring back memories.
That movie is 91 years old
+Russell M Actually it's 101 years old and I remember it especially because of the scene with Rihanna in it. Her acting was pretty good.
Your looking well for your age.
Michael Johns Thanks I use human sperm on my face. Really rub it in to make myself look 20 years younger
I guess black really dont crack
Rise up above injustice, oppression, evil and darkness...ALWAYS!!! #RISEUP
This movie was incredible and parts of it brought me to tears. I will be seeing it again just to show nate parker support for his efforts in bringing the great nat turner to the lives of people who never knew about him.
Job 31:13-15 "“If I have denied justice to any of my servants,
whether male or female,
when they had a grievance against me,
14 what will I do when God confronts me?
What will I answer when called to account?
15 Did not he who made me in the womb make them?
Did not the same one form us both within our mothers?"
Jesus Christ how have we not made a movie about every single slave by this point?
Good one. Thanks for that.
so its better to keep making movies about dumbass college white kids?? luckily we can still pick and choose which movies/tv shows etc we want to see and not see
Jesus Christ how have we not made a movie about every white girl going Black and never going back to white boys?
+0juliemarie0 What about movies about other tragedies? Slavery movies are a dime a dozen compared to other tragedies that were objectively worse than the slave trade.
Not even close... Nobody is forcing you to go watch it
Holy shit....I have goosebumps. I love this movie already.
This would never have happened with studio interference. Props to Nate Parker for making it happen, and staying true at great risk.
He did the right thing fighting back im white and i have always thought slavery was a despicable thing and never should have ever happened
It did happened, and we should learn from it. To never do such thing to another again.
This was truly a honor to be apart of this great film Rest on African Slave ancestors of 1831 Nate Turner 🕊️🕊️🕊️🙏🙏🙏
Go back to Africa so the rest of us can stop listening to the victim-playing BS. No one is stopping you.
This is a powerful movie. Just saw it
Tony Turner who was the kid at the end who was the spy?
Demoham Cristiano What do you mean? The actor or his role in the movie?
Tony Turner either one because I'm trying to find out who was the kid who was spying on them and then told the slave owners, if I find out the actors name I can find out who it was by searching it up, but if you knew who it was then that would be great:) I think it's Frederick Douglas? Is it?
Demoham Cristiano I do know it is not Frederick Douglas
Tony Turner Frederick Douglass was a former slave who spoke for African Americans back in the day
I cried 😢 this is one of the best movies. As a human we all same !
This is not your normal slave movie!
So if you go to the movies to see this and expect another 12 years of slave, your are in for a shocking surprise!
Right! This is different. A hero who should be taught in every school worldwide
that was a great movie as well.
+kreek22 you're white. I been on your profile so stop trying to insult blacks
@Ivory Rose r/woooosh after 2 years but still r/wooooshed
This is true history they dont us to know
my people :-( I love you each and every one of you. lets keep our heads up. Yahshua is on his way. we all got to love and help one another. lets rise. together.
Amein, Bo Moshiach!!
When I seen the white girl with the little black girl with the rope around her neck it’s killed me my heart drop… this makes me so angry thinking they really did this to my ancestors 🥺🤦🏽♀️
Truth is colored folks still have those ropes around our necks it’s just financially. They learn that beatings was less useful then financial slavery
That was the SICKEST part of the whole movie! I was LIVID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤬
Dopeness!!! Thought I could use a break with movies about slavery for a little while after watching 12 years a slave but this has more than peeked my interests. Its all about how a story is told and this looks damn good!
*piqued
+Randall Starr Randal Star
I was being quite polite, you know. Not everyone knows the word is actually "piqued" and I was tactfully saving him some minor embarrassment in the future (a company-wide email, for instance). Not everything should be met with a nasty attitude and stupid crap.
Randall Starr Never embarrassed bruh. If I knew this was a English exam I would have used spell check....but it's not. You get my meaning...
Spell check doesn't work on properly spelled words, such as "peeked." That's exactly how we wound up with millions of Americans who don't know "your" from "you're" or "there" from "they're."
If you STILL don't recognize a minor good deed when you see one, then maybe you need a bit of an attitude adjustment. The aforementioned embarrassment was a potential scenario I was trying to save you from, I never indicated you should be embarrassed. I'm so done.
This honestly put tears in my eyes. Why do black people have to fight to be respected like people, when they are the most beautiful people? I don’t understand. Black people are dedicated they are smart loving helpful and so family oriented. And deserve every ounce of respect that anyone gets. I’m not black but my heart loves my brothers and sisters of African decent and always will. I teach my kids to do the same!
❤
❤ Thank you
"black people are the most beautiful people", if this is true, then why do blk men always want to upgrade and marry white women when they become successful? Think carefully before you answer.
@@doberman2yk Success is subjective and not all blk men who obtained money run to marry white women. Those who do are part of an industry that believes if you look the part you can further advance your career. There’s 100 of thousands who of blk men and women who refuse to follow that doctrine. My question is if you have disdain for blk folk then why are you here? I’m sure it’s a school,church or grocery store you inflict your hatred upon.
im blessed and glad to be able to be taught in school as a child about nat turner..most kids these days will never know or be taught his story its a shame..
Slavery is just a figure of speech. Call it what it is: low wages.
+kreek22 What wages???
*Violets and Blues
Did you think the trip from Africa to America was free? Whites didn't get free trips. They either paid up front or they paid on the backend by doing indentured servitude. Blacks paid with their labor. And they were very well fed compared to Europe or Asia. Apparently blacks are pretty happy with escaping Africa. They never go back.
kreek22 get ready for slavery white boy KJV revelation 13:9-10
has Hispanic man I have to confess, I cried when I saw that movie. I just can't believe how you can do that to another human being..
Weak.
I agree❣️ Sadly, we are no different now, what have we learned? May we modern people be as brave to stand up against such unrighteousness.
This is definitely on the go see list...I'm happy they chose the name for this movie.
I think this guy lacks gratitude: he was rescued from Africa! So what if he had to accept low wages for a few years?
REVIEW OF "BIRTH OF A NATION" on my channel. No longer than 4 minutes. Check it out. NO SPOILERS !
@@kreek22 STFU, pig skin.
One of my biggest pride is I saw this twice in the theater, had to see it a 2nd time cause I couldn't believe what I saw
This movie was amazing, I hope more like these will occur soon and get the recognition it deserves
"Oscar winner Nate Parker" has a nice ring to it.
Hope this raises awareness for the slavery that still exists in this world mostly legal in child marriage laws and slavery in the middle east/north africa/islamic world .
Learn from the mistakes of the past, end slavery !
It's a joke if you think that, not trying to be an ass but people now aday perfure to pay attiontion to the kardashions or youtubers.
Nobody is going to care exactly because the slavers are no longer white people but are in Africa and the Middle East. People are more interested in demonizing whitey then actually doing some good.
As a US History major I need to just say that THIS was the nastiest part of our history... 100s of years of pure tragedy, slavery is what tore us apart but it was also what brought us together... there's no arguing against it. But in the midst of all the hate, turmoil, and utter devastation... we stand here now, United and stronger than ever! God Bless America. United We Stand.
I would vote for you
Thank you for making this film. We need to know this!
so ready for this movie. hope the academy awards and the rest of the world is too.
This looks like a fantastic movie. However I see a lot of ridiculous hate in these comments from many different sides... We never should drown history, and we should always be skeptical as to what lens you are learning it from. Growing up (at least in my region of the Northwest) I was very lucky to have great teachers who taught us to the best of their abilities what REALLY happened. But that is not enough, we need to encourage our children to read for themselves and spend their own time learning... I wish I had more time to write but at the moment I do not. I will just end this by saying please... Please do not be just another wedge of division among human beings which every one of us is. Humanity is far more complex than "black people did this" white people did that" "but they did that and this and blah bah". Learn the history and use it to make the future more united, not to fill your heart with hatred.
Saw this yesterday and it was AMAZING! Go see it! Such a beautiful movie.
Which part was beautiful?
I won't ruin it for you. But it basically shows that not all slaves were stupid and submissive. Every movie that currently exists tries to show how white people (like abraham lincoln) saved us poor, uneducated, helpless black people.
Abraham Lincoln couldn't give less than 2 fucks about the Stolen Africans in America, and much less about their emancipation. That bullshit Proclamation was ONLY put into place as a means of cutting off one of the South's primary means of income: Slave labor.
Agreed. It was a largely tactical move. As we all know by now Lincoln had slaves.
Cecil Kinsey Not quite sure what point you're trying to make???
Cried my eyes out watching this movie, WoW! This movie is so good..... It is not much different than today, sadly. Now I completely understand the meaning from BLM and I can definitely feel the pain of my people, we need to uplift not put one another down.
The media and mayonnaise people sabotaged the crap out of Nate Parker and this masterpiece!…😒

story of a persecuted Christian man that helped change things for the good
Greg Howard the fuck are you talking about he just killed like 50 white people and got hanged for it. He was a good man and a hero but he didn't change shit. Blacks were too scared to rebel after they cut his skin off cut his head off and displayed him in the street. Shows how much you know about him.
He tried
Story of a schizophrenic baby killer who changed nothing.

I guess the closest you can find to a black hero is Nat "I hears voices in my head" Turner, aka Baby Killer. If alive today, he'd be a rapper, drug dealer, murderer.

Can't wait to see this tonight!!

“The past is never dead. It's not even past.” - William Faulkner This film scares some people not just because it is about our black brothers and sisters rising up against oppression, but because it is an example for all of us of our ability and our right to rise up against oppression.
This is one of the best movie I've seen in a while...Excellent movie! everyone need to see this.
This and Free State of Jones look amazing. Historical movies are some of my favorite.
Liberty is not given freely, but taken with anything necessary!!!
Most realistic depiction of how slaves were really treated, but in reality we don’t have a clue of the brutality our ancestors had to endure every single moment of their lives. 😢
Reparations Right Now for FBA-B1
Oooh. Finally hits home how demeaning it is to be called boy when you're a full grown man. That tone. And it continued on for quite some time after slavery.
Best movie I’ve ever seen. Nat turner, I salute you! True leader ✊🏽. Enough is enough.
lol it's a ret*red fantasy for black folks..I get u liked it cuz ur hatred for white folks...outside of that it was lame fantasizing by a rapist filmmaker 🤷♂️ bet he thought it was gonna be something big too LOL
They actually did it. Holy shit I'm in tears.
Nothing like resurrecting contempt for today's people who never owned slaves amongst today's people never were slaves.
That is not what the film is; only someone with a very simple mind would say that. IT is meant to show the horrible acts of the times, you can not empathize cause you choose not too. IF you were black in those times would you have done any differently? The who issue in this country is people who choose to lack understanding. They fought cause they had no other choice, those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Those who preach hate and racism however are a blight on society, and I am not talking about jokes. IT is one thing to make a joke to poke fun and try to make something joyous out of something that is horrible. You choose to speak ignorantly, though only those as simple minded as you will agree. I however will post one thoughtful response on each racist post I see, cause freedom of speech means I have the right to speak the facts and truth while you preach nonsense that only easily manipulated fools would agree with.
For all of you who don't know. This was the original birth of a nation from 1915 www.newyorker.com/culture/richard-brody/the-worst-thing-about-birth-of-a-nation-is-how-good-it-is
+Jakob Will you do know the title was on purpose right?
ya think?
General consensus on the original:
As a film, it revolutionized the industry and helped made it what it is today. The themes displayed, however, are overall racist/outdated.
But why? They could have gone with any other title and they chose the worst one. That's like if a Jewish empowerment film was named The Triumph of the Will. It works as an effective title but we all know why we never used it twice.
+MasterBDG701 agree, they are trying to use it as an empowering and triumphant, "look where we are today" title but it will turn people off being named after the most effective piece of white supremacy propaganda in history.
This looks like a beautiful, well done movie. Look forward to seeing this one.
SUCH A POWERFUL MOVIE STILL WATCHING TO THIS DAY
Best movie I have ever seen.
Good until the annoying vocals came in
There was a different trailer way back in January that had way more badass music.
It's almost like...it's not authentic or something, maybe even bullshit.
I just saw this movie and I couldn't held back my tears.
WE WILL SING A NEW SONG.......🙏🌼✌🌸🙏✌🌼✌💮🙏
Always break down in tears watching this kind of movies :(
Honestly I don't get why we are still treating slavery as a relevant topic. Obviously learning about it is important and should be necessary, but pushing the subject this hard just seems silly. And if these comments are anything to go by, it's just pushing the races in America further apart when we should be coming together.
By this point in time, no person alive has experienced slavery, and it would be best for us as a nation to simply move past it and look to what we can do to better the present, instead of trying to retroactively "fix" the past.
In that case we should just get rid of thousands of movies made about history
+James Carter the thing is, this movie is highly inflammatory and being used to push an agenda, whether that was the directors intention or not. For a movie like saving private ryan, it was meant to showcase a pivotal moment in history more than anything else. I'm not too sure that this movie is trying to be unbiased in its portrayal of history, as they are presenting it to be completely black and white (no pun intended)
+Gamacios rarely is there a topic as divisive as slavery. The US went to war over it, and now commenters are going to war in the comments over it.
The point is, slavery is over and nothing good can come from re-opening the wound with every new movie showcasing it.
+P8 Studios or is it that every time you see a slave movie, you think of "white guilt"?
+James Burgess why would I feel guilt toward actions people took which I had no control over?
Inspiring and beautiful movie. If only people had this much courage to stand up to tyrants in our modern times, I would die for a man like this if he led such a rebellion today.
There is people like this fighting evil everywhere every day an they usually get called a Uncle Tom Martin Luther king was a modern day version of this man and most people marched with him
We absolutely need a movie about the Haitian Revolution as well!
We absolutely do
The bible is a true book and all of it's prophecies will come to pass
🧢
To the all black folks out there I love you all and wish you a nice life and all lives matter there no place for racism 😊
That is some advanced acceptance and anti-racism.
POint out other peoples skin color.
This will be the best film of the year I can already tell!
''Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere"
On leur doit la liberté aujourd'hui, encore contestée à certains endroits de la terre! Un incroyable casting pour un merveilleux et terrible film! Toute cette souffrance, on leur doit tout! Nos ancêtres, nos parents, nos frères et soeurs en ont bavé, et de nos jours, nous avons encore à combattre la haine, la différence discriminée et l'ignorance! BIG UP, Brothers & Sisters!
omg i cannot wait to see this movie !this looks so good. Nate Parker is such a great actor.
I can't wait to go see this tonight.
Just watched the documentary on Netflix last night, "13th"...does it ever put into perspective what has been going on in this country since day 1. I wish more people would take the blockers off of their eyes and open them up to the bigger picture. This original film came out in what? 1915? And it was sickening. Can't wait to see this side.
This movie is the reason Nate Parker's name is being dragged through the mud. They want to discourage as many people from watching this movie as possible. I can't wait to watch it.
This brings me to tears every time.
I show this trailer to my students in U.S. History.
Oh THANK YOU.
@@adliala8987 On of my students did her final on Nat Turner. I'm very proud.
@@TheKanjified I'm very proud too.
@@TheKanjified I'm happy she wrote her final on this legend.
@@adliala8987 R E B E L !
I'm really liking Nate Parker after watching Beyond the Lights two years ago. Finally he'll get more recognition come Oscar season.
It seems to be a good movie, don't know why so much people dislike this
I saw this movie yesterday night, It was excellent!
I am going to watch it RIGHT NOW, cause these non-black comments seem too out of wack. I'll give you an update after.
My friend saw the movie and said it was fantastic.
Movies like this move me. I’m Canadian so to an extent the slave trade isn’t taught in schools but I can only imagine the depth of how these people suffered. Canada has mistreated the First Nation communities, Chinese and Japanese. History is important to learn and be educated in to not repeat history.
Brings chills and tears; my spirit letting me know "we rode and still must ride against the demonic nations🙏."
