Uncle Tom II: An American Odyssey

I don't know where to begin and I don't want to spoil it for anyone, but this movie has left me speechless and the proof is all there for everyone to see! Where has this movie been all my life! I thought I was pretty well informed and in the know. But boy was I wrong! I'll never see things the same way again. One thing is for certain is college history is so far removed from truth it is shocking! I have felt the pain of our youth and now that pain has been revived with a new luster. Gladly I will take truth over lies! Be gone with complacency and being a blind sheep! I will be a sheep no more! Everyone needs to see this movie!

I watched the first Uncle Tom and was amazed at the different angle of looking at the history and the personal stories of those involved so I was excited to see Uncle Tom 2. I was not disappointed at tonights premier in Dallas! All involved put their heart and soul into a well researched, thought provoking but sometimes hard to watch film that continued to open my eyes but at the same time leave me with a heavy heart. I truly hope people can watch with an open mind to see that there is a planned division that doesn't need to continue. Truly great job by all involved...look forward to number three!

The overall premise, (which may seem counter-intuitive) that the black population advanced to achieve greater prosperity and overall happiness, or at least, satisfaction with their standard of living and sense of self respect and dignity in the years between the Civil War and the 1964 Civil Rights Act, versus the decades post the 1960s is intelligently discussed and makes for interesting viewing (even if, from a cinetmatic perspective, this film is undistinguished). The participants in this film are to be commended for their courage in voicing a perspective that amidst current times is not politically correct.

This is an outstanding portrayal of a history that is deliberately hidden from Americans today. Given the specific nature of the rhetorical attacks on Americans, and the tactics used to keep us a weak and divided nation, it is critically important that people of all walks of life understand what is presented here. Two calls to action: 1) see this movie, and 2) spread the word to encourage others to do the same.

It loses two stars only for lost potential in the omission of invaluable information about elected Democrats who in politics *really* opposed Civil Rights. This information is detailed masterfully by Dinesh D'Souza's book, "The Big Lie", and several PragerU shorts on the racism of the Democrat Party documenting that the parties never switched.

I was a young teen when the race riots were happening. Every night on the news I learned so much and became enamored with Martin Luther King spreading the message of love. When MLK was assassinated, it confirmed that he had the true message. At that point Jessie Jackson and Al Sharptin stepped in to foster hate between the races. Uncle Tom II confirms everything I always learned about the races and so much more. My best friend as a teen was black, but I didn't think of him as black, he was just a friend. As a 4 year old in the 50's I was riding in the car with my mother and older sister, I saw a black man walking on the sidewalk and questioned my mother about him being black Me "What is wrong with that man?" Mom "He is a normal person like you and me only his skin is a different color". I love my mother for that and have never forgotten even at 69 years old. So when you black people believe the message of hatered towards whites, you can believe there are millions of white people with similar stories to mine, and who love you regardless of skin color.
