Who or what is Spike Lee?Comment

someone who made money making waves and bad films,
meanwhile,,
During a Wednesday appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” discussing his film “BlacKkKlansman,” director Spike Lee called Christopher Columbus a “terrorist.”
Lee lamented the fact he was not told that George Washington owned slaves and that Columbus’ history is not taught in schools.
“I also have to say the reason why I’m wearing this hat and pullover is that many years ago the first slaves were brought to this country in Jamestown, Virginia, 1619 and 2019,” Lee shared. “I think that a lot of people need to know this. Because this is part of American history, which is not all good. You know, I think that when I was in public school in Brooklyn, New York, I was not told George Washington owned slaves. I was told he chopped down the cherry tree and wouldn’t tell a lie. In 1492, this guy, this terrorist sailed the ocean blue. I mean, we have got to start teaching, I feel, my opinion, let’s be honest about our history and let’s move forward. We’re not honest about our history.”
dude is 6 yrs older than I am, and was not taught this in school?
I learned that and much more here in little old RVA,
of course, we had field trips to Jamestown, Willliamsburg, Yorktown and Monticello,Comment

He says terrorist because it's the first thing that came to mind. And, the ocean blue and 1492 rhymes.If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.Comment

A little while ago he was complaining that Hollywood is too whitebread. His 2008 WWII film Miracle at St. Anna was a box office bomb, hence he is considered unbankable in Tinseltown.Last edited by blackhawknj; 02-14-2019, 04:01.Comment

If Columbus is a terrorist, what was Cortez? And how does this reflect on A. Ocasio-Cortez?Comment
