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!

All the history we were never taught...

The movie does a masterful job of presenting a massive amount of history, backed up by facts, recordings, and video in just under two hours. As someone who pays a lot of attention to the current cultural revolution underway in this country and has a reasonably good knowledge of US history, I was absolutely blown away by how much I really didn't know. Apart from the massive amount of information being presented, the director did an absolutely phenomenal job in making the movie interesting, coherent, and compelling from the first scene to the last. It's an emotional journey for anyone that loves this country. One cannot help but feel a sense of urgency, deep despair and, frankly, anger as the pieces come together to reveal just how far the enemies of the United States have come in their effort to destroy our great country.

This is a must see movie. I don't know whatever else might be on your plate at the moment, but you need to set aside two hours of time in the next couple of days to watch it!

Uncle Tom I & II are quite possibly the most important pieces of our time. Thoughtful and thorough with beautiful cinematography, it's so clear how much time, care, & work was poured into these films. Uncle Tom II is absolutely masterful, albeit difficult to process at times. I found myself having a lot of emotions to grapple with afterwards but as hard as the truth is to face sometimes, it's highly valuable because it sets you free! This is a must see duo for the generations. There's nothing better than starting to wise up to the deceptions in your own mind and behaviors that keep you imprisoned. The visual arts, like this film, are so important to the human experience in moving us from point A to point B. Time for the TRUTH to set us ALL FREE!!! I can't recommend this film enough.

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.
