@Holister951 Fuck off. It's grossly arrogant to presume to tell someone else what they can or cannot say because of some deity you were conditioned to believe in. If god does exist, he'd be disgusted by your arrogance. Cunt.
@TheMixDragon 'this is quite easily one of the most powerful movies i have EVER seen. Praise God.' - no, praise Wilberforce and the millions of others who objected to the trade. God had nothing to do with it, because he doesn't exist.
A great movie, too bad slavery still exists. You can't buy slave free chocolate, coffee, clothes, or electronics in our god damned society unless it is fair trade, and good luck finding that.
I'm glad Holland is coming around! we got lots of fair trade/ecological products here nowadays! not as much as 'regular' products, but it's going strong! Even one of our biggest chocolate manufacturers 'Verkade' has gone fair trade for about a year now! =)
The song was written by an Englishman, John Newton, who was a slave trader before he repented his sins and chose a life of solitude as a preacher. He encouraged Wilberforce in his fight to end the slave trade.

I saw this today. I was crying at the end. Every high school student in America should've been taken to see it. They draw strong parallels between slave industry power then and corporate power today.
Everything about this movie is beautiful. It was well done, well written, and well cast.

This is a great movie. Today there are more slaves than at that time. Can we do something?

God does exist, and with out him you would not be here so shut up and think about the words you say before you put 'em down.
Good show by the way!

I always thought that this song was american but apparently it was written by an englishman named John Newton.
Mad5am 4 years ago
Thats what I thought, but the reason why is becuase lots of black american gospel singers sing it, like a memory for the slave trade.
StrangeBean 4 years ago
Yes, exactly, I watch a lot of US TV/ films so this song always appears now and again.

Ironic the Statue of Freedom which sit atop the U.S. Capital was forged by a slave in exchange for his freedom...
