Uncle Tom II

An excellent explanation of just what happened to the black community. Well sourced, good information.

Judging by the 1 star reviews and heavy criticism in this thread, a few (likely white) liberals, undercover trolls, or marxists-socialists stopped by with the sole purpose of lying and trying to adversely effect the star rating of this truthful, and very necessary look into the Black Experience - before and after the Civil Rights Era. Like one reviewer claims, there's just no way they could not have known the angle this documentary would take when the conservative line up is clear as day, written on the product. It should be well known by now, even if all of the documents that are brought to the surface in this documentary were never seen, that a hidden agenda, plot, or set of insidious maneuvers took place parallel to the movements Black people joined together to seek change about. Being a Gen-X Harlem Native with grandparents who moved up from placed like Miami, North and South Carolina before I was born, I can attest to much of the information shared in this documentary about the Black condition. My grandparents were comfortable middle income people from huge families who owned all kinds of businesses, homes, cars and everything any other American family possessed. It wasn't until Blacks were deeply integrated into cities like mine - and the heroine / crack cocaine era, combined with the welfare system / political agendas mentioned in this film, did the entire community begin to go down. I was born into the heat of it, 1970's. I am sure there is so much more for Chad, the creator of this doc to explore and I plan to watch everything he puts out starting with ordering Part 1 of Uncle Tom tomorrow. Segregation or not, it's time we look at the history and admit that even during Jim Crow black families were doing much better as a unit than they are now. My grandparents photo albums testify to a very different time, like the beautiful images in this documentary. Just watch it. Highly recommend. How else do we go from fully functioning, classy, God fearing families who stay all together, owning homes, buildings, and all local businesses owned by Blacks, that's how I grew up - every business was black owned - now all of them are gone! Since the recovery from the crack-era in about 1993 that started to drastically change. Today, there are mostly single parent homes in Harlem, so much poverty, addiction and homelessness, and a new Harlem flooded with alternative lifestyle (mostly white) liberals, immigrants from here & there, and the last of the decent black people are once again are fleeing South. The Civil Rights Movement was a farce and the consequences, far reaching as the are, still impact these urban communities of color to this day. They got more than they bargained for, which is nothing except a seat on the bus anywhere they wanted and no one uses water fountains. If you're ready for the Truth, watch this. If you don't like Truth, prepare to get your feelings hurt. Change starts with accepting that we've been lied to, deceived, destroyed as a group. Just look at the images from then and now, the economy from then and now, then see the strategies / pitting of one influential black man against the other to sway the Black consciousness to the dependent, entitled state where it can be dominated and mind-controlled.... it's all here in this documentary. It was a pleasure seeing Voddie Bachman as well. A true man of God.

Great commentary highly recommend

So glad someone finally brought the REAL Black history to light. This is so well done and enlightening. I wish that I could put this film in the hands of everyone I know. I am sharing this film with everyone I know. It is soo sad that this history of Black America has not come to light before now. We've been bamboozled for too long. Deceived and lied to for decades. Hopefully this film will open eyes and hearts to the truth. I can't say enough good about this film. It is a Spectacular, and well documented film you will want to watch and share time and again. I warn though, that the language many times depicts the culture, but does not take away from the wonderful message of the film.

I purchased Uncle Tom I when it came out, and it floored me. This Uncle Tom II teaches history but is different from the first one, reaching into new directions to teach the history of black people (of which I am one) in America. I can't wait for Uncle Tom III. If you haven't seen these, you'll leave victimization behind and realize your potential in America and learn to step up and make your ancestors proud. How to quit like men and women, and raise morally upright children who can succeed. LOVE THIS, LOVE THIS, LOVE THIS!!!

Uncle Tom II reveals the strength and determination of human nature to carry on and lift one's self out of poverty and oppression into productive, self-sufficient independence. But it also shows the power of envy, strife, and violence to knock down the successful, independent family. Beware - this documentary will challenge what you with something more insidious than you imagined. Read, study, and pray to God for discernment to find out for yourself. The truth will make you free. I'm so grateful for the courage of these men and women to produce this for everyone who cares about Black history.

Good movie but nowhere near as good as the first installment.

I'm so impressed with the brave black Americans who are informing other blacks about what has happened over the last sixty years in this country (which, sadly, is leading to our nation's division and demise).The black Harlem (of yesterday) shows a thriving black American people who owned businesses, took pride in their families, their education, their communities, their school systems, and more; they were happy, hopeful, and full of life.Fast forward to Harlem today . . . it's full of garbage, crime, chaos, and violence (all thanks to Lydon B. Johnson and his devious efforts to hold African Americans back).This is very well done; it is tremendously EYE OPENING!!!
