    I grew up in Tar Heel North Carolina, they showed us…not Roots but imagine other movies you’d put in a playlist with Roots. I remember one where they cut a slave’s finger off for learning to read. In NASCAR Tobacco Cotton Cackalacky. They tried to tedious it up with locations and dates of battles but they made no bones about how awful the institution of chattel slavery was in the American South.
