SUNDANCE '08 - Meet the Filmmaker: Katrina Browne

[AshEL33]

The courage and insight it takes to make a film like this ought to be applauded. It takes a big person to be able to look at the impact of the actions of one's ancestors, and an equally big person to acknowledge that work with humility. For he who throws the fist stone, may he have no sins...We will never have a sense of peace until the legacy of slavery is deeply addressed, thereby healing he wounds. An apology is a first step to the wellbeing of our world.

What a dumb broad. Poor her! She looks inbred. She should pay for her family's involvement by pouring gasoline on herself and lighting it.

[Raybanmonster]

@chuck496 What is more telling is your need to comment in the same manner across videos related to her.

[chuck496]

@Raybanmonster more telling...than...what? I do it to get my comment seen by more people. It seems obvious to me why I would do that.

[Raybanmonster]

@chuck496 PRECISELY you dont see that your comment is vulgar and personal, yet she has not attacked you personally, unless you feel somehow insulted by the material she is discussing? Else why would you wish this woman to burn herself ? What did she do for you to wish that she covers herself in petrol and light it? My god, what is wrong with you?

[chuck496]

@Raybanmonster She feels personally responsible for something her descendants did 200 years ago during a time when what they did was customarily acceptable. She is retarded and apparently inbred. I suggest that she douse herself with gasoline and light herself so she can pay her just penance. It will cleanse her soul. I am offering her valuable advice.

[chuck496]

@Raybanmonster BTW I am not racist. I just don't believe in my future descendants paying for something I may do. They would have no responsibility for something that I do. It is ridiculous, and in katrina brown's case it is justification and empowerment for her need to be a victim. Her plight is purely selfish. It gets her attention on a personal level. I see right through her pathetic plea for attention. Right now she is exploiting blacks for her own personal gain.

Woa transceiver dial it down a notch. Deep seated denial often leads to mental illness. Accept it, own it, heal yourself and move on. And if you have a problem with the component of reparations, then go to work for the rest of your life for free-why should you be paid if you think others shouldn't be compensated for their labor.

[chuck496]

@blackbootparty My great-great-great grandfather quit a job one day. He went back two weeks later for his last paycheck. The employer told him to f-off. I WANT REPARATIONS FOR THAT WEEKS PAY MY DESCENDANT NEVER GOT! Ex-slaves are dead. They don't need the money. Blacks who live today don't deserve anything for free any more than whites or latinos. You're stupid. Go shoot yourself.

[Raybanmonster]

@chuck496

to have replied in such a shallow manner to a deep and wonderful repost that slam dunked your argument dead is typical of your racist filth. You chose to behave in a childish manner to it instead of answer it like an adult. You are a fucking retarded Cunt & it is clear you denigrate black people because it makes you feel better about being so shit. You cannot be successful with limiting beliefs as way out as that.

[chuck496]

@Raybanmonster Deep and wonderful? you don't know me. You hate me because I disagree with you. I'm black stupid. Don't reply to me any more.

[chuck496]

@chuck496 Also, you did not slam dunk anything you dumb moron.

[Raybanmonster]

@chuck496 Then respond responsibly. You think it would have been better for her to keep quite? She is brave to have done it, give her a break.

[thetransceiver]

Honestly, Katrina, your efforts fall short of bringing much truth or light to the indisputable fact that Brazil's slave trading history dwarfs that of America's. Your call for reparation only fuel a fire which has been woefully misplaced.

I regret your personal feelings cloud so darkly your inability to discern fact from fiction.

Nothing but a publicity stunt/gimmick/ploy to bring attention to your own self loathing.

[potttttttttts]
