Did you see Birth of a Nation? Apparently not many did.





Man, what do white feminist have to do with this? Black folks, men and women, were upset behind this guys rape allegations and his real nonchalant responses during the first interviews after it came out. It was kind of a "phuck that bytch" type of dismissal about a chick that committed suicide behind it that didn't go over well. And honestly, I think the studio left him hanging. They said they were well aware of his background...ah...then why didn't y'all have an Olivia Pope on standby to help him handle this? He could have changed his trajectory if he'd come out with different words and actions from the jump. THAT's what got folks talking...and talking....and talking....and raising points to the point where it was difficult to support. I honestly don't know if I will see this...not just from his past...I haven't seen any black folks rough time movies- not 12 Years a slave, not selma....just can't handle it right now....
 
Saw the movie.

N. Parker did a great job painting the picture and telling the story.

The parallels between the movie and present day America is astonishing. I didn't expect a large turnout for this movie.

Some people only want to see and know blacks as subservient in the annals of history. The movie Selma faced the same issues.

I would admonish everyone to see this movie.

Nope. I've seen enough slave movies.

I saw the movie, it's not just another slave movie; it's about a slave who decided he has had enough. I'm not sure how a person should respond to questions regarding a crime that he has been acquitted of by a jury that I am sure were not of his peers.
 
I’ve decided to write this because I felt that it was much more conducive to do than a social media rant.

It’s Sunday, October 9th, 2016 7:02 pm and I just want to start this by saying that at this point, I’m over social media, and I’m over the cyber mafia known as “Black Feminism”.

I‘m to the point where if I even see another black woman with “feminist” in her bio, I assume that she’s petty and that I should not associate with her publicly or privately.

If you haven’t seen/read the news already, Birth of A Nation has flopped in the box office and we have black feminism, which is just fancy cyber vernacular for “I hate black men because I always choose the wrong types of black men to entertain” and their male minions to thank.
