This is a new movie under the name "Uncle Tom." It is a documentary about a Black American, a life long democrat, who was challenged to actually read the democrat party platform....he did.....and he realized he was actually a republican......
Then he was attacked and condemned by friends and family....
this is about that issue...
On June 19, also known as Juneteenth, the celebration of the end of slavery in the United States, we released our film, Uncle Tom. It follows a young, black, Christian contractor, Chad Johnson, who was a long-time Democrat until challenged by a fellow Christian to read the platforms of the Democratic and Republican parties.
He did.
Johnson was shocked to discover that his support for limited government, low taxes, and school choice, and his opposition to abortion on demand, made him a … Republican!
Uncle Tom explores the often-vicious blowback Johnson got from friends and family, let alone others, when he announced his conversion. Instead of Johnson’s evolution sparking a healthy discussion about which party’s policies better advance the interests of Blacks, Johnson found himself being called “Uncle Tom,” a “sellout,” and a “self-loather.”
The film simply asks: “Why is there no respectful disagreement in the black community? Why are great black thinkers like Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, and Shelby Steele ignored or marginalized by the black and mainstream media?” Despite impressive, decades-long bodies of work — columns, books, and speeches — Sowell, Williams, and Steele are completely unknown to many Blacks, and not just young Blacks.
Black conservatives do not attribute every major problem in the Black community to slavery and Jim Crow. Black conservatives do not believe that racism remains a significant problem in American society. Black conservatives believe the welfare state has incentivized women to marry the government and has incentivized men to abandon their financial and moral responsibility, a far bigger problem in America than racism.
