American Maroon

So much hatred and vitriol in one man. Yet he doesn't even realize the privileged position he is speaking from and where it came from. It's just the way the world is, we all seem to be so driven by our egos that we don't see the damage we are doing. He could be doing something that will bring people together, yet here he is trying to drive a big wedge between everyone. You are pushing the same agenda that the elitist of the world are pushing. You helping their cause only dooms all normal everyday people. I really hope that this man can find solace in his life and stop living a life that only breeds hatred.

Its something all Americans should see and be shown in the school history lessons. I say this because history tells us that it is the Victor who writes the history books but, we all should know that the winners/Victorious were more often than not, notorious liars! American history is well known to hold an abundance of untruths and bare faced lies/discrepancies (the Indian history is a perfect example)! The major dislike I had of this documentary was the way in which the history, of the American Black Maroons, was told. A lot of people were being interviewed and telling the background history but, too many of them were repeating exactly what the person before them had just said and some were just not worth listening to; it got very annoying very quickly! It is also far too long at almost 3 hours long; it could have been told in an 1:50 minutes just as easily...so it may have people sleepy with boredom etc.

You thought the false black Cleopatra was bad? This is a much worse example of poor research, bad history. It is culture war race baiting. We need to be working together against the 1-10%ers, the millionaires and billionaires, landlords, labor exploitive businesses, celebrities, reality tv, uneducated people, RepubliQans too. I cannot understand how anyone could see this and agree with its "message". It has to be a really low iq person with no critical thinking or deductive reasoning skills that likes something like this. Really need to work to stop these type of shows and not fund or support the people involved with them.

You'd think that if the producers of this documentary actually believed this was an important topic to turn into a movie, they would have spent a little more tie researching the incident and put a little more money into producing a quality film. IMBD estimates the budget was around a million dollars. Where did the money go? It looks like it was made with a four hundred dollar cam corder. The film is chock filled with factual errors and the direction is horrible. Given that the running time is a crazy three hours, you'll be sleeping before you know it. So sad that something good could not have been made instead.
