I want to watch to support, but I'm getting tired of seeing movies about slavery.
I know it's a very REAL part of our history, but I think it's time to start telling
other parts too. The only films we ever see are about slavery & civil rights.

I appreciate them for telling the story, but there's so much more to our history.

I mean respect to those actors and actress and especially our ancestors who had the strength to ensure we would be here today.

But at the same time the shade of it all is the title itself.

Roots!
Like this is where it starts. Naw Bruh, stop tryna brainwash us.

Roots is not just some movie about slavery tho imo. Now that the obligatory slave movie is put out annually doesn't make these stories any less necessary.  I personally have a younger brother who i feel is very detached from this stuff and i feel like could benefit from roots. Roots was something we kinda got together and watched when i was younger.  Like it was a significant moment in time. I honestly don't know if he's had that.  Roots was always more of a documentary in my mind. There will never come a time that this story isn't necessary.  But yes,  tell others as well

Its called roots because it's alex haley's family history. He went and sought out his story, so these were very much so his roots. Lemme just be quiet..........
