For those of you who haven't seen the movie I won't give too much away, but historical events in Sweet Home Alabama play a prominent role. Why am I mad after seeing The Butler you ask? Because the more things change in America....
Favorite line from the movie: "If the federal government doesn't enforce Brown v. Board who will"?
Who indeed?
- This movie reeks of white supremacy and black submission to white supremacy
– This movie is literally being marketed as a slap in the face to black pride, african heritage, and as a portrayal that somehow turning the other cheek in the face of oppression is some kind of strong character trait [the author is referencing Oprah slapping her son in the trailer]
– BOYCOTT “THE BUTLER” and let america know that black men arent buck dancing, subservient, weak minded servants of whites or any other race/culture. This depiction is not a part of black history, it is proof of how bigotry and racism interrupted black history - See more at: http://www.thisisyourconscience.com/2013/08/from-slaves-to-servants-do-black-films-like-the-butler-deserve-to-be-boycotted/#sthash.XFWbsn2j.dpuf

I haven't seen the movie, but I will if only because I could use "The Help."
