yes they do and it is no good.....
I thought "Roots" was good. I read the book much later in life. It was timely and educational at that time.
But, now I think YT is getting off on all the beatings and lynchings. I think it is nostalgic for them. They are not getting the message we think they should be getting. And, they are trivializing the brutality of slavery. But, every year, there's another slave movie, while there is so much more to our history that could be addressed.
Maybe every AA generation needs a "Roots"? No?
