Snoop Dogg Says We Should Boycott "Roots"

[Buck Seventy]

I've seen Roots and other slave movies that were made back in the day but I haven't watched the recent ones.

 

[twizza 77]

I saw the original that's all I need to see. I did watch it last night, I thought was ok. I was wondering when the Aliens of the Illuminati will show up.

 

[skpjr78]

I find these types of movies to be beneficial. They are historical pieces that when put in context can be a source of inspiration.

If, you're tired of slave movies then you should be tired of gangster, pimp, drugs and hoe movies as well.

i agree. but this fits into the lifestyle idea some people want to live.

i bet more people got and watch scarface in their crib then redtails

Red Tails was a horrible movie. Great cinematics but writing was poor and acting wasn't that great. Traditional Lucas Film.

But I'm ready to see the Nat Turner movie.

Redtails was a horrible movie. It felt more like a Disney sunday night movie than a historical film. And they just had to throw a white bitch and some jungle fever bullshit in there to. Shit had nothing to do with the Tuskegee Airmen but anything to make white people feel comfortable.

 

[twizza 77]

Anyone going to see Free State of Jones?

 

[Stomp Johnson]

So if we want want our stories told, what's wrong with pooling our money to hire a capable and qualified filmmaker to see the vision through? That way the people control the narrative and not the narrative controlling the people.

Oh wait, you all didn't really think that these studio would go deep into their pockets empower us and build US up did you?

 

[Logic Last]

I love slave movies because without them white people will rewrite history and act like it wasn't that bad.

 

[Logic Last]

Can we get a movie on Mansa Musa or King Tut with black people playing these roles.

A movie about sundiata, Akhenaten, or even nzingha would be goat man. These Caucs don't want to see us in power, even on a semihistorical basis smh

Cool but slave movies are great. White people keep forgetting why we are in ghettos and why we have a self destructive element. I want white people to see it took a nation of millions to hold us back.

 

[Logic Last]

Snoop could always take his money and hire a staff to make something different with blacks ...out wait. TOO MUCH LOGIC.

Wasn't that nikka Snoop in Soul Plane? I was embarrassed to be black when that was in theaters.

You said it best folk,

They already trying to rewrite the history books and take out the word slave

We need to keep our slave movies to show the next generation of black kids.

Also showing them something positive is good too.

On the side note in regards to movies/docs

Hidden Colors 4 is in the 10 slot on Amazon for all movies that has come out.

The power of the black dollar.

 

[white sympathizer]

Nigga 40 something years old still bragging about banging, like he been bout that life in atleast 20 years, snoop was at one time americas favorite negro

 

[rapmusic]

[Maximus Rex]

I'm cool on the slaves narratives, unless somebody does with Spielberg did with Schindler's List and and Saving Private Ryan and show slavery in all of it's barbarity and sexual depravity. I want them to show the racist, white supremacist slavers for brutal, sadistic, and sexual perverse individuals that they were.

Show them in all of their murderous brutality when they killed us with impunity. Show them engaging in their twisted sexual fetishes that not only involved them raping women, but men and children also. Show the slavery breeding farms that existed during antebellum slavery.

With all of that being said, on July 18th, 2018 there is a movie coming out that's going to show black people in position light and in positions of power, and as the kings and queens we so desire. It's

So all of y'all that's complaining about all of these slave narratives that are coming out, I fully expect y'all to support Black Panther wholeheartedly and see it multiple times.

 

[the dukester]

Getting rid of slave movies is like telling.......

-White people to forget 9/11

-Jewish people to forget the Holocaust

-Native Americans to forget when Christopher Columbus hit Plymouth Rock

-Japanese people to forget Hiroshima & Nagasaki

Snoop talking out the side of his ass on this one.

Bp is a super hero in a made up town lmaooo

I really think Snoop was saying that we don't need a 2 slavery movies/tv shows a year situation like what's happening right now. I totally agree with that. People only make slave shit because it's the easier path to getting awards. Let's be real. Just like how in the tv news business, stations cover the pain of people and get Emmy awards off that shit. More stories need to be told, the stories that have not been told yet.. Give me the slave movie and a movie about some shit like Black Walstreet or something.
