This is one of my all-time favorite movies, and it's not even because of the racial component or message. It's just a great movie on its own. The story, the acting, the characters.....it's just a great movie.

The key is they introduce us to the characters and show them as the men they are, not just their color. They have wants, needs, fears, and regrets like any other person, and because of this it shows there is no reason to hate them for something as simple as the color of their skin. On top of this they tell a true story with very little extra BS added in. A true example of how a telling of this kind of story should be done.

That's one thing the Confederacy thought about union soldiers. They thought the center line at Gettysburg, commanded by Gen. Hancock, would run when they saw the charging Confederates. Instead, it was a bloodbath that destroyed Gen. Pickett's division.

Every group of people has something that they are ashamed of in their past, but that doesn't excuse it. We should learn from our past and come together as brothers and sisters of this nation, of this globe. But pride and sins of the fathers will always stop this from happening.

marksandsparks1 the emancipation proclamation was a cynical illegal insidious attempt to promote a slave insurrection in the south. At a time when union soldiers were being used to murder hundreds of American citizens who resisted being drafted to fight an imperial war. It was a rational and well deserved response to Lincoln’s proclamation which was a complete violation of the laws of war.
