JUST SAYING  ...

I ‘am a bit pissed with films like the butler and 12 years a slave...seem like we  focus too much on slavery like other races weren't faced with such, at some point in history.

 It would have been nice to watch films on great men like Alexandre Sergeivich Pushkin, Adolph Bardin and Angelo Soliman (Men who were brought to the west as slaves but later conquered their times with their contributions) or better still founding fathers like Kwame Nkruma of Ghana  or best the great Kandake’s of Ethiopia, Queen Idia of Edo kingdom and Queen Amina of Zouza , great kings like Jaja of Opbobo and Ovarame No’gbasi  Omo no Oba no Kpolo- Kpolo (after all there is proof that Africans had  and still has an oligarchy in place!

...and if royalty fails to hold interest then there is the Ekumeku of Anioma, men who were adept at guerrilla warfare in a time you wont have called modern.

No, Holly wood keeps focusing on slavery... slavery.... slavery!

I am not saying I don’t enjoy these films but there was a story before slavery and there are uplifting stories after slavery.
