Nigga. Nigga... I guess abolition of slavery will be the happy ending but their lives are fucked anyways.

Yup, and even after slavery is abolished blacks are still treated like second class citizens and if you want to see the effects of the systematic assfucking of the black community over generations just look at any ghetto.

THERE IS NO HAPPY ENDING

This. What the fuck was she thinking? Saving the guy some pain? He's going to die anyways.
>>
>>70371136
Why did she shoot the black guy? Wouldn't he have instantly died when he hung? Doesn't your neck snap when you're hung like that.
>>
>>70371172
She probably thought that because she was a white woman she would be spared as long as she didn't kill anyone so her best option was to save her friend some pain
>>
>>70370984
It was more than just a few towns. Whole cities were pretty integrated before southern blacks migrated north. Thomas Sowell writes about this at length in black rednecks and white liberals. It seems when you control for cultural values, backs and whites can get along just fine.
>>
>>70371178
They didn't set it up so that his neck would snap. He was suffocating like what ended up happening to her.
>>
>>70371178
It depends.

The way they were doing it was meant to make him suffer.
>>
Two fucking car crash advertisements
>>
>>70371178
Also, for the neck to snap when someone is being lynched, they tie the rope around the neck while having the person being lynched in a higher position with or with out a trapdoor. They then push the person being lynched or engage the trap door and the downward momentum snaps the neck.
>>
>not even taking them out of the pack of people who surrendered

That seems like a great way to end up killing the whites you apparently don't want to kill.

Holy shit how the fuck are they going to cauterize the wound after amputating? They have no fire or liquor.

Isn't George literally fucking 70-80? In 1812 they showed him to look around 18 or so. And now it's 1865.

but does it feature Questlove drumming with twigs

>>70371824
Nah, we all saw it. For example when the white woman 1st saw Kunta you know she wanted that BBC. And the way the white spy looked at the pretend mute you know they fucked

Haven't seen the new series, but it might interest some of you to know that when the first "Roots" miniseries hit tv, it had a major impact on race relations in the country.

It was....the visual impact of the slave ships, and the whipping. There were reports of black kids beating up white kids in high schools the next day. It was weird.
