The history of profiling for opposition's sake: I don't believe that a lawyer on the street beat a bunch of other idiots like an angel, saving a group of black Africans who were pure enough to chop melons and vegetables to destroy the notorious slave gang.
Although Americans feel guilty about that piece of history, the power of the movie is not political correctness, the director is the athlete, not the referee. Can't be so one-sided and exaggerated.
I think in the historical background at that time, this incident will never be so vivid, but all parties have their reasonable reasons at the time, otherwise there will be no need to go through a long period of time, and must go through a bloody civil war to completely end Slavery.
Historical films are not easy to make, and this one is also not immune, despite being a great director.
