Birth of a Nation by D.W. Griffith - Trailer (1915)

Two brothers, Phil and Ted Stoneman, visit their friends in Piedmont, South Carolina: the family Cameron. This friendship is affected by the Civil War, as the Stonemans and the Camerons must join up opposite armies. The consequences of the War in their lives are shown in connection to major historical events, like the development of the Civil War itself, Lincoln's assassination, and the birth of the Ku Klux Klan.

I do not agree with the racism, but this is perfect filmmaking. D.W. Griffith transformed movies into a respectable art form, mainly due to this movie and Intolerance. This is a great epic movie. You all need to get over a movie made almost a century ago.

Whilst I do not agree with racisim or inequality, I do think that black people were happier in those days working for us when they had a sense of purpose and pride in having a job as a maid or a yard hand and earning their own money. Nowadays they live in those awful filthy ghettos relying on the welfare checks we give them, which is not good for their morale. I think this is why they are so aggressive and angry. I'd say most of them would prefer to go back to the old days.
