What you don't understand was that was a GRATUITOUS portrayal. No one benefitted from seeing that. |
It this situation they are showing kids, young girls to teens kidnapped/take to "boarding" "schools" and abused and having their culture and families taken away. |
And why not? Again do you think history is all rainbows and unicorn farts? |
seriously? I bet some didn't know this kind of thing happened. Would you be averse to a slave being whipped? How's it different? |
Quoted PP. I am well aware of the cultural and racial genocidal history here and I watched the episode. I also cut my career teeth as a new college grad in one of those states' penal systems, which is full of Native Americans (whole other debate). It's about time someone shown a light on this, and it is very, very ugly. |
I can't believe we have to wait a month for another new episode! What's up with that? |
I know! Can't wait for Spencer to make it home & go ballistic on the murdering sheep herders. Maybe they are the first drop offs at the train station. |
You have obviously never seen Roots. |
Or Glory |
Roots was so good. It was one of those things the whole country watched. We talked about it in school. |
Anyone watch episode 5 yet? OMG I can't get enough of this show...the best thing I have watched in a while and much better than Yellowstone. |
Can you stream through Hulu or do you need to buy yet another platform to watch this? |
I still cannot believe this is the woman who played Caroline Bingley. ![]() |
Why shouldn't it be shown? It happened. The fact it is new to some, and makes others uncomfortable, suggests that it should be out there more. Including in this show. |
exactly. this part of american history has been white washed. We need to see it. Also, Spencer is hot. |
