"The Birth Of A Nation" Cast Discuss The Film | BUILD Series 

Spanishjazz Nazario I doubt it it will it an Oscar but the film deserves it

+King Walker I think it will after boycott last year alot of eyes are watching them. they will make it right I know there several that will be Oscar wothy but honestly the Labor of love to make this movie was so special I am routinf for them

the movie only made 7 million and on top of it the black feminsit really hard the movie and influrence a lot of people not to support the movie but i hope so

+King Walker that is load of an excuse. they have made Columbus movies for generations. A rapist a thief No one to celebrate and Nate knew that this would happen. They will make excuses. The sole reason for him not getting finacial backimg from a Major Movie company. but it's okay He was able to tell his story as he saw fit to tell it. I supported him after seeing him in an interview on the Breafast Club. I was moved by his story how he basically begged people to invest in this movie. He wrote a hero "story Nate said weather it made $8.00 or 7 million he wanted to celebrate the story he was taught If by making this movie classrooms would start talking dinner parties would start discussing. get people to discuss. Famous line: they are killing people because there black. No reason. just because. god bless👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏BRAVO MY BROTHER NATE

@@pbama5220 The movie theater turned me away from the movie, saying they're not showing it anymore. It's more to that movie than what you think and what they tell you.

I agree just wish he wouldn't have sold the rights to it

ricrossisaCOfakeBoss He had to. He needed the money and then with all the "controversy" surrounding him, he needed to not be attached. Many people didn't watch hid movie because of the grittiness and the controversy surrounding him and the movie itself. Like madd stuff.

ricrossisaCOfakeBoss not fox search light. Byron Allen would've been cool.

+PiazzaGurl There was a smear campaign against him because of the rape allegations of which he was found NOT GUILTY.

Amen 2 that, sista!

Armie for supporting actor!

just realizing she is.

YES

just gorgeous women!!

Good lawd!

nubiacoco ikno she is!! 😍

Kymmze notice Gabriel Union isn't there? And they allow Ann Miller to pretend like her character was a partially good person, even slide on some women's rights. The white people up there (misspelled purposely) are all putting slavery and there behavior on the "system" the system they created. "I was born into it" the slave said the same, but he wasn't happy.

+Justen Robinson Gabrielle Union was involved in numerous interviews about this film go to youtube and she talks glowingly about this film.

Dwight Love are you so blind to see that she voided all the good with the bad. Plus which opinion is true? She sought to make white people happy and it likely worked but this isn't her only misstep. She and Dwayne wade are the enemy.

+Justen Robinson If that is the case then why did she sign on to be in this project in the first place????

Dwight Love cause she's a bedwench, I didn't think it was rocket science. Hoover didn't infiltrate the panthers by holding a glass up to their door he got in the room. I don't believe she didn't know prior because of so many others who were aware. Regardless black got paid even if white supremacist search light isn't in "the black" yet they will be. Peace to my brothers and sisters of the cast but fuck that bitch.

Anita Brown you beautiful

I'm mad he sold the rights of the movie Jewish people have it now damn wtf Nate ... but will go see it just don't approve of that move....

me too

yeah that would be great!!

Cahluvca Tariq nasheed is doing a documentary as we chat.

Cahluvca Danny Glover been trying to get funding for his Toussaint movie for years. A good turnout here might help with the completion of that project.

bloods and crips too.

YES

I will make black wall street

We also need a Hollywood version of Italian invasion in Ethiopia in the first world war, who were defeated and sent back to Europe. First African nation to defeat a European military power and remain independent during the colonization of Africa.

#FACTS

Yeh. We need to see better endings. Danny Glover was suppossed to do this film.

They are not girls...they are women...🌹🌹⭐

Nachelle Kelly yes and they are fine as hell 🔥🔥

Lashawn Alston Same situation in London. I watched the movie yesterday, no publicity whatsoever for this great film.only one showing 5.45pm I bet this film will be pulled from the cinema within a month. I counted 10 people

Victoria Young I took my kids to see it. Why sugar coat...the world doesn't...and I agree, they need to know their true history.

aworldmedia yep. A damn shame. Sheep minded ppl influenced by anything the media says. And this was my first time hearing about a black feminist..wtf that doesn't even make sense.

Kevin Odom I know this reply is TWO years late but I hopeful isn’t TOO late. The reason you don’t or haven’t heard about these revolts in the US is purposed. They did occur however they aren’t glorified or publicized because America is still profiting off of the after effects of slavery even 157 years post Emancipation. A large part of that profit comes from having/pushing the belief that slavery “wasn’t all that bad”, that “slaves had okay lives. They were housed, fed, given work etc.” and “were treated like family” as it has been said many times as it is a foundational thought of the descendants of the slave owner. With that said, if the MANY slave revolts/rebellions that occurred in the US were taught, publicized and glorified it would instantaneously debunk the aforementioned foundational belief because there would be no need for rebellion if things were as good as they claim them to be. This belief has caused for, even in this day, those descendants of slave owners/caucasians in general not to have the needed sympathetic reasoning to want to repair the damage done that is still ever present in this day within the relationship between America and its African descendant inhabitants. Moreover, these revolts aren’t pushed public knowledge because it threatens the set power structure of America. America thrives, unfortunately, by maintaining a foot on the necks of the descendants of Africa. If it becomes widespread knowledge that our forefathers didn’t take that mess from America lying down when they were enslaved, it would change the mindset of and build up an entire people that are now free. The insurrection this knowledge could cause would be IMMENSE and truthfully THAT is what they feared then and is MOST DEFINITELY what they fear now.
