I had heard a lot about this movie. I had heard people complaining that it was racist. But, I decided to keep an open mind until I saw the movie for myself. I saw it a few years ago. It is definitely racist. They treat the KKk as the heroes. All the African Americans are played by white people in black face. They depict every stereotype against black people there are. They depict the smart, wise black people as those that know their place was on the plantation and to be loyal to the white masters. I find the movie very distasteful. However there is something about it. It is racist movie, but it is well made.
