With a strong cast of actor/director Nate Park, actress Gabrielle Union, Armie Hammer, Aja Naomi, Colman Domingo, and Aunjanue Ellis, "The Birth of a Nation does a fantastic job placing the audience into the times of slavery. The actual story of Nat Turner was very different from what was shown here, not playing on the heroism and masculinity of Nat Turner. I know this because I did a little research on the actual story of Nat Turner.

Devil white men to lazy to crop cotton but not to build ships sail rough seas and hand pick AA by strength and abduct froma continent of war hardened Africans. Most were bought here in America from pirates that bought from Africa. America's bought from "sorrow" afraidof what fate is ahead for them if they didn't get off shore in America. Some were treated fair as maids some not,as slaves.Almost as premeditated sympathy like jews had on accident.Now we feel guilty though we sacraficed for both.they run world

After reading a few of the racist illerate and delusional comments towards white .... All I can do is laugh. 193 countries and 50 of them probably still practice slavery and guess who would be there top choice for a slave? Most likely black. America is the only country in the world where you can be black and have a million dollar salary but don't bow to that flag.
