THE FIGHT AGAINST BIRTH OF A NATION

This weekend i got to finally see one of our great ancestors Nat Turner on what is known as "THE BIG SCREEN" or in other words a Hollywood funded and distributed film.

​

​

​

First scene two huge, muscular, overly-strong Black men who also happen to wrestle ravage and rape a young white girl at a Pennsylvania college. Wait no thats not the first scene and not what the movie is about it actually takes place the early 1900's and fear of Black men raping white women is at a Terror Alert (Red) and the Ku Klux Klan is formed... Now anyone educated on Nat Turner at this time is probably scratching their head like what the the f*ck.

 

 

 

Well if you haven't been under a f***ing rock these past couple of months you would have seen that Hollywood has been trying to sabotage this Nate Parker created and written film since its sell to Fox Searchlight. With the parading of a false accusation of rape across news conglomerates which Nate Parker was acquitted of 17 years ago. Hollywood and white-led feminist groups are putting a boatload of pressure on people who plan on watching and supporting the story of our great late ancestor.

 

 

 

Fake outrage was created over hearsay which was proven by 11 whites and 1 black juror to be a false accusation, so the jury acquitted Nate Parker in 1999. But the greatness, strength and the possibility of people of Afrikan descent rallying from this story of a slave waking up out of his indoctrination and fighting against the oppression of his people, and for the liberation of his people is something Racist America and the powers that be were scared of and would fight against to the death.

 

 

 

See its no problem for "so-called white people" to make fake propaganda about fear of newly freed Black men, raping their oppressive slave masters wife (which white people had been doing to Black men, women and children for the prior 400 years) and forming a group who would terrorize and undermine Black people for a 100 years in the 1915 film Birth of a Nation. Letting Afrikans in America see their ancestors fight back and kill white enslavers in a Hollywood film unchallenged or rivaled is a HELL NO.

 

 

 

So we now see a full onslaught from Hollywood and feminist groups attacking not only a Black man, but this beautiful, powerful, motivating movie of Nat Turners life and Liberation fight against white enslavement and oppression.

​

​

​

Beautiful Afrikan people of the world we can't let this stand we must support this film because we are finally getting our story told. It wasn't enough that Nate Parker went easy on them by not showing the full brutality displayed by Nat Turner and our other ancestors on to not only the white man but his wife and offspring. No, that wasn't enough they had to sabotage the film to make sure it wouldn't be a blockbuster and a gateway to uplift ourselves out of this oppressed mind state. Get your a** up and support NAT TURNER and go watch BIRTH OF A NATION. Support so we can get an outbreak Marcus Garvey, Haitian Revolution, Seminole Wars, Gullah Wars, Queen Nzinga of Ndongo films from courageous Black producers and directors.

 

 

 

Afrikan people of the world WE MUST SUPPORT films created by Black people about our ancestors fighting back like BIRTH OF A NATION for our mental state our future and for the beginning of a new Afrikan nation a UNITED STATES OF AFRIKA.
