The very first slaves to arrive in America in the 1600s were white.

Racist or not, stories like this deserve to be told. Without trying to sound too political or offensive I’m just going to say from a historical perspective (not modern day perspective) two slaves plotting to kill their slave owner, only for one of them to alert the slave owner and in the end one slave gets punished for his actions and the other gets rewarded for being honest and turning in the other slave. (Although he still gets hit some afterwards). From a historical point of view the slave did the right thing by turning in the other slave for plotting to turn against their owner and the loyal slave was given food as a reward. (And also gets beaten as well). In the end the slave plotting to kill the owner gets punished for the right reason and the other slave was rewarded food for doing the right thing. Of course slavery was never a good thing but we do need to be taught about it. Hoping we can learn from our mistakes. Overall the art style was pretty good and the music was pretty fitting and it shows that stories can be told and lessons can be learned without words. That there is history. Not the prettiest part of history but it is something everyone should know and learn about.

Nice

So this was a good movie here I love some of the classic effects and this has some nice scenes in it, would be nice woth some more dialog on this the visuals were pretty good though this was actually pretty entertaining so nice job indeed on this film here

~~SUGGESTED IDEAS~~
No major changes it was entertaining

~X~

Uh, that was weird. I mean, the animation was gorgeous. It just made little sense. I take it the guy was meant to be a slave. Was that another black guy being lynched? Pretty unpleasant sight.

It's hard to understand it without dialogue. Something like that needs to have a lot of action. You know, something everything can understand. I mistook your artwork for JeremyLokken's at first. Well, other people at least like it.

Lol, don't know what's worse. The amount of butthurt SJW's in the comments, or this flash.
