The first time I heard of this movie was in College. I then purchased myself a copy. This movie is Amazing, Probably the truest, realest movie regarding Slavery. It told of the horrors and abuse African people who were brought to this country endured. I believe this is a must see for everyone regardless of races.The strength alone of the people, to deal with what they faced and to still rise above that is absolutely Incredible. It is a shame that this movie got no recognition in the US. I guess it would cause people to deal with the reality of the horrific brutality human beings faced during this darkest era in American History.
