I can't help what the past generations have done. The important thing is that we have mostly changed it. South was both sadistic and kind but stopped slavery and Jim Crow. When we look at each other as people and not colors is when we will be truly equal. I take the good and ignore the bad in the old movies. As long as the bad has stopped that is all that matters. Bojangles & Shirley are perfect.

@JoiStax There are still movies created today about the Civil War. This really happened and we can't live in the past. We acknowledge that slavery happened and we movie on.

Has anyone ever seen the Shirley Temple Story. There was a lot of surpise when Shirley released her first movie that dealt with slavery, which wasn't this one, but the Little Colonol.

Damn Bill was a fine hoofer. Take that John Travolta!

The war between the states was only partially about slavery. If the south had seceded then north america would have been at war with itself for two hundred years like Europe. That would not have served any purpose.

Those of you offended at the kind depiction of slavery in this story, I suggest you actually read what was written at that time by people who lived then. Think logically. If most slaves were oppressed in the way that the revisionist history books make it out, why is it that more than 80% of them adopted the religion of their masters/former masters? If you grew up in slavery and were really treated like dirt, would you want anything to do with your masters' God?
I don't understand the negativity? It is the old south..do you think having black children at the party would make it authentic? People were alive then who remembered it so they would know.Uncle Billy saying "I don't know what it means myself" is a sarcasm because he didn't believe it would ever happen.The little girl giving Shirley the doll just looked incredibly shy to me, not ignorant. There has been and still is slavery all over the world, not just the old south.Leave it in the past already.

Be mad at Your own ......because Africa is the one who sold your people over here. I'm not trying to sound rude but really some people act like this never happened.
