@FULIAN at least we learned how we actually treated them in history, but Europeans also played a major role in the slave trade so you can't say that they are completely innocent in all of this. Not to be contradictory or offensive.

it's so funny how this movie portrays americans as good people when in reality the spanish and the new spain accepted blacks!! when have you heard of in latin america or spain blacks rioting or revolting against the government?? get real!! people in america make movies to portray americans as heroes and forget about their true history

But this happened

WOW!! This is shockingly terrifying. I mean seeing a bunch of human beings taken against their will as"imported goods", and shipped off to some other place....it just made me lost my train of thought. The whipping scene really did it. I watched this in AP History, and I literally cried my eyes out.

You know, I am an African living in the US. One of my dearest friend likes to tease my heritage by calling me a hungry, starving African/ And, I, in retaliation, say that his ancestors got in this country by taking a first class ticket onto the Air Amistad. I apologize and wish for God to forgive me for mocking my fellow brethren's suffering.

Okay..this MOVIE & this VIDEO CLIP was NOT intended for ANYONE to make mean,rude,hurtful,and down right IGNORANT comments.This ought to be a learning experience for everyone.This shows what ACTUALLY happened and all the suffering slaves had to face.For the ones being racist, don't say things that you wouldn't want anyone to say to you..so stop being so cruel.Oh & Btw, COLOR does not define anything.Don't let the hard hearts of the past effect your future thoughts.God is Love. That is all.(:
