I thought the story had the ring of truth about it

Posted by Road Warrior on May 3, 2014 at 15:26:18:

It may well not have been 100% reflective of the vast majority of slave's experiences, i.e., a well respected black man living in the north tricked and then kidnapped and sold into slavery. However, if my passage into Heaven were determined by whether I chose correctly as to the truthfulness of Northrup's story, I'd choose truth. Maybe I'd be wrong, but like I said, it had the ring and feel of truth about it.

I don't see story telling of a sad moment in a nation's history, i.e., slavery, jewish persecution, burning of witches, beheading of "heretics", etc., as promoting discord. To the contrary, showing the horrors of those actions to the current generation should help raise awareness of what wrongs can be wrought by prejudice and ignorance. Just my $.02 and probably very poorly said....

Oh yeah, in the interest of promoting the harmony thing, I couldn't agree more about Gravity? Fun? Yeah. Academy Awards? WTF????
