Filmmaker’s Controversial Past Takes Its Toll On ‘Birth Of A Nation’ At The B.O.
Well, for those of you still pondering whether or not to go see Nate Parker’s Birth of a Nation, if you go by its weekend box office debut, it might motivate you to not go.
What happened?
For months, this movie was all over the news. It’s director/producer and star, Nate Parker was in high rotation promoting the movie. He did a lot of ground work to get the movie made. But right around the time the movie received a standing ovation at the Sun Dance Movie Festival; and was sold to Fox Searchlight for 17 million. There was high hopes. Many were sure this mostly Black movie cast was headed for Oscars. And then…the white chick happened. A dead white chick at that. Apparently, 17 years ago, Nate Parker and a friend were accused of raping a young 19 year old white co-ed while she was passed out at Penn State. There was a trial, Nate was acquitted. The jury felt that his sexual involvement with the young woman was consensual but his friend’s involvement was not. Nate got on with his life. The accuser committed suicide 12 years later.
Nate Parker has been in over 15 movies after this incident. This issue was never challenged before but when he decided to make a movie–on his own about Nat Turner, one of the greatest leaders to ever lead a slave rebellion in 1831 in Southhampton Country, Virginia; all of this surfaced. Why now? It’s not typical for a filmmaker’s past to influence success of their movie but this incident has been the focal point of every press interview he’s been in from the Toronto Film Festival, Good Morning America and 60 Minutes.
Many believe that the negativity of the rape case is what has hurt it from crossing over into broader audiences. 60% of the ticket buyers were African American.
The exit polls for the movie have been good, so what killed it?
Yes, Nate Parker has a white wife. And some Black people have spoken about and pondered how a man not married to a Black woman could portray such a strong Black figure. But many women began protesting the movie. Including Black women at that. They stated the rape charge as the reason why they couldn’t support the movie. Yet, is this really about rape or something else? I just can’t understand how Black women can protest Nate Parker but not see how white racists used them–AGAIN to destroy a Black man.
The second reason that may be for the backlash is that there are white men killed in this movie.
We are in a war. There is an agenda to portray Black men in a certain kind of way. This film is about an uprising at a very critical time in our history. Some among us have an issue with Black men being seen in a masculine way. With recent violence taking the lives of so many, this film could have been a justification to properly cement the anger toward the establishment’s insistence on reigniting White Supremacy.
I still might go see the movie. It’s an important part of our history.
Nate Parker used his own money to make this movie. Supporting him is a matter of choice but standing up for what this movie stands for, is a matter of principal.
This is artistry at its best.
Will Black people save it?
That would make the biggest statement of all.
From The Mind of Truthangel 
White women are always used to take down black men in media and sadly, black women go along with it. Let’s not let the fact the movie didn’t “do well” in the box office stop us from seeing it if we want to see it. That shouldn’t even matter. It’s a part of history. That’s what matters. And Hollywood used this “rape charge” to sabotage the success of the movie.

You will have a ball looking at all that verified government data that white folks like to avoid especially when it comes to the the rhetoric they spew about “Black on Black” crime. I hope you do an article about these stats one of these days. White men outnumber every other race in every crime category. This is the bottom line point I like to drive home when it comes to the real criminals in this country.
The FBI came out with a report that said out of the 50,000,000 African Americans in America less than one percent committ any crime. So when you look at those statistics according to that particular info you will see the probability of why we committ far less crime than our white counterparts. They are just not being convicted and sent to prison for it like black men who can do 50 years just being accused of crime regardless if evidence says otherwise.

Of course…you know I had something to say about what she wrote. Here’s my response:
Excuse me, I’m a proud Black woman, and I’d like to address this piece of garbage. Not only is it off base culturally, the ignorance from where it came only makes one wonder if there is actually a brain or the ability to do scholarly research on subject matter that can easily be studied through the use of a nice Google search or libray; that obviously the author of this blog knows nothing about.
What you said about the African American community can only come from the mind of a dimwit too lazy or stupid to do actual RESEARCH on the attitudes and cultural norms of Black people.
First and foremost, Black fathers are highly respected in the Black community. Why wouldn’t they be?–the majority of black men MARRY BLACK WOMEN. We love Black men, baby! In the African American culture, we value our relationships; and the Black Family is supreme.
Where in the hell did you get your education?
Sounds like you’re projecting onto us. Which is typical of whites. Given how many white men kill their wives and children statistically. No wonder white women are running from them.
I’ve never read more ignorant, racist, bullshit like this in my entire life.
It reaks of an uninformed, white chick, too arrogant and clueless to go out and do actual journalism, thus, she rants about her own bias; masking it as opinion, in order to persuade a certain ideal and attitude about a topic that frankly, has not been helped by this juvenile post. I’ve never read anything so vapid and assinine.
The Black community is in discussions about many things. One of which is the violence perpetrated by white males in this country in the past and present. Birth of A Nation is precisely about such, as being the purpose of the uprising to begin with. Perhaps you should have taken some time to study Nat Turner’s life and why he felt so strongly about taking a stand, even at the cost of his life.
Black women are going to see this film. Most are not against Nate Parker, as you lied about. And for the record, if you’re going to tell a story–GET THE FACTS. But that might be a little to steep for a “Becky” who doesn’t seem to have the sense of a goose.You are a racist bitch who doesn’t realize that white women like yourselves don’t realize just how innately sick you are.
This comment:
“Listen up black community!! We’re done!! We’ve had it!! We are no longer your pawns to be sacrificed at your whim!! No more!! You don’t care about us!! We see how you ruined Nate Parker’s film and rise to success!! Let that community rot with the filth!! I’ve made my choice like Mike and Nate, and I choose to love white women. Because unlike the women in your community, men aren’t irrelevant and unappreciated by them. It’s no secret that a black man can only have success and happiness with white women because they are actually women worth loving, worth protecting, and worth cherishing.
White women are worth it and you should want the best.”
Sweetie, let me open your head about THE REALITY OF WHITE WOMEN: White women have sex with dogs and go online and brag about it. You molest children. The white community is literally in a crisis because of the suicide rate of white men and women. 30,000 white men kill themselves every single year. There is a heroin addiction epidemic. Prescription drug epidemic. And currently, the white race is at negative birthrate (more people are dying than being born). By or before 2050, white people will become the minority in this country for the first time in its history. Do you want me to continue? Basically, in a nutshell…YOU PEOPLE ARE OVER. The white race is dying out worldwide.
Quite tursely., your vagina has become the Battle of Waterloo for the white race. White women are the most sterile of all groups of women on this planet. A Black man that has a child with one has literally committed genotype annihilation because white people have recessive genes. Any Black man that has a relationship with a white women is sick mentally. He has bought into a stereotype of The White Goddess. But that isn’t a reality at all. What white women are is the female extension of White Supremacy and no-thing that attaches itself to a white woman has pride in himself. Most Black men hate white women. They really do. They laugh at how ignorant many of you are–believing anything they tell you. Strong Black men have no trust or respect for white women and feel that your average white woman needs an expiration date; you broads don’t age well and begin to look like something that belongs in a horror show after awhile. No wonder you love to portray witches during Halloween. Because that’s about how many start to look after age 35.
If you really want to know what Black men think of you, I dare you to listen to this for clarity.
Black people have dominant genes. A Black woman is the only woman on this planet that is the genetic equal to a Black man. Black women are feared and envied, because many have risen above the perceived weakness of the female. Black women are the most educated sector by gender and race. White women are intimidated by our very presence because we are the strength and backbone of our race.
You can’t compete with that! There is nothing superior about white women. And the only thing you seem to have mastered is to use sex as your only weapon because you don’t possess the ability to make men respect you intellectually.
Of all interracial couplings, Black men who marry white woman end up in divorces. That is a statistical fact. You can’t keep something that you’re not aligned with genetically, spiritually, or psychologically. YOU ARE NOT THEIR MATCH! And you most certainly are not our equal.
The birth of civilization began in Africa. Black women were the first mothers and queens of this universe. Queens do not bend–they RISE! And No Black woman with any level of intelligence or self-respect will ever bow down to a cave bitch!
So this little blog is a farce.
No honey. White women are not worth it. You’re pathetic at best. What you are in a nutsell are a low, bestial, fragmented thinking, reptilian brain, genetic defect.
There is no future with something that is destined to be annihilated by nature.

The only thing a white woman can offer to any man is her vagina. She certainly has no strength of character or intellect to win the true affection and reverence that Black women have.

And many times, Black men have deep respect for that strength in us. Black women had to be strong to hold the race together. Our people were violated on levels that are inhuman. And that anger in Black women is to say to the world: We are the nurturers and defenders of our race and have a right to be angry. Black women are tired of weak men. We are tired of being dumped on by white people who we know are mentally sick. My Black life is not the reason why they are at negative birthrate and I will not allow them to project their depravity onto me.

A film that is done accurate about Nat Turner should put fear in white folks! There’s no reason they should leave the theater feeling good about themselves. That’s how you know Nate Parker had to make a compromise to get the film made.
A few things I heard about Birth of a Nation. I haven’t seen it myself:
1. I heard that the studio told him no white women or children could be killed. Keep in mind that Nate is married to a white women in real life.
2. I heard he gave himself up to the slave patrol. This never happened. A total fabrication.
3. A black boy snitched on Nat. Another bold face lie. This reinforces the belief that black people can’t trust one another.
4. Nat Turner was a preacher and believed that God can forgive you. Well I heard in the film there was a pedophile that wanted to get baptized. None of the white preachers would do it because he molested children. But Nat said he would do it because God can forgive anyone. WTF?! They made Nat a pedophile sympathizer?? This is a slap in the face!!! The crazy part is they hang Nat but a pedophile can be forgiven. What’s the message? The message is saying that a black man fighting for his freedom is unforgivable and must be punished BUT a sick pedophile can be redeemed. I’m speechless. White supremacy has reached new heights.

Here are some facts about the case. I have more but I think this will suffice.
August 25, 2016: Four Penn State University alumni have come out in support of actor/director/producer Nate Parker and writer Jean McGianni Celestin. Penn State alums LaKeisha Wolf, Assata Richards, Lurie Daniel Favors and Brian Favors released a statement late Wednesday night.
Here is what it says, in part:
1. The woman making the claim was a white college student and the criminal trial was decided by 11 white jurors and one black woman in Centre County, Pennsylvania. Nate Parker was fully acquitted at trial and Jean Celestin was wrongly convicted on one charge which he later successfully appealed.
2. Despite what’s been widely reported, Jean Celestin ultimately served nearly two years in prison while he fought to clear his name. His conviction was later reversed by the Pennsylvania Superior Court of Appeals and he was fully exonerated. The court that reversed Jean Celestin’s conviction overturned less than 15 percent of all the convictions appealed [pdf] in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania that year.
3. Witnesses were threatened by the investigators who were trying to build a case against Mr. Parker and Mr. Celestin. As a result of those threats, some witnesses (including one of the undersigned) had to seek legal protection from the very investigators charged with finding the facts.
4. A key prosecution eyewitness changed his statement several times after being threatened and coerced by police investigators.
5. The allegations of torture, stalking and intimidation of the woman involved in the case are absolutely untrue. Neither Mr. Parker, Mr. Celestin, nor any members acting on behalf of the Black Caucus ever stalked or harassed the young woman. As a routine part of the university and police investigation into this matter, both Mr. Parker and Mr. Celestin had bail orders that barred them both from certain parts of campus and from approaching the young woman involved. Had those orders been violated, both would have been arrested before their criminal trial. Neither the Black Caucus leadership, nor the group’s academic adviser was ever contacted about any supposed harassment of the young woman by black student members.
6. From the date of their arrest until after their trial, both Mr. Parker and Mr. Celestin were under strict bail conditions to have absolutely no contact with the young woman. Had they violated that order, their bail would have been revoked. Claims of harassment were used to support a civil suit filed against Penn State University for payment after the criminal case. Neither Mr. Parker nor Mr. Celestin were named in the civil lawsuit, neither Mr. Parker nor Mr. Celestin were ever interviewed or contacted about that civil suit—nor were they able to defend themselves in that suit and were not aware of its existence until it was settled.
7. Contrary to repeated inaccurate media reports, there is nothing to suggest that the ruling had anything to do with prior intimate contact with the young woman involved. The jury made no mention of this when they rendered their verdict. The jury’s decision was based on prosecution and defense witnesses and evidence in the court record that indicated that the young woman was both conscious and engaged during the evening in question.

The reason they are brought this up is because they wanted to derail the public from watching his upcoming film about the slave rebellion with Nat Turner that got white folks up in arms. Irregardless of what the details of the case may entail this would have never seen the light of day had it not been for him making a very uncomfortable film in this system of white supremacy. They know on a symbolic level this film represents a energy of discomfort and revolution that could spark a whole range of emotions that white folks are to scared to face. Because they live in a system of insulation that shelters them from experiencing racial strife that gated communities protect them from where they are not forced to interact with other racial groups.
They don’t have to deal with race based stress. This type of environment builds expectations for racial comfort while at the same time lowering the ability to tolerate racial stress that leads to what we call today as “white fragility”.
White fragility is a state in which even a minimum amount of racial stress become intolerable triggering a range of defensive moves. Anger, fear, and guilt, and being argumentative. Silence and leaving the stress inducing situation are the many ways white people express their uneasiness when it comes to this situation.
So the type of film that Nate Parker is making is what white people spend their whole lives trying to avoid. You see white folks only want to see subservient sl*ve movies where their position of authority isn’t challenged. This type of film keeps their supreme self esteem high.
When you challenge the system of white supremacy as a public figure your slate past or present has to be clean and clear. White people vibrate on a very low level so when you are trying to raise the energy of black people by exposing them to uncomfortable truth, white folks will lower that frequency by exposing dirt about the person who is trying to bring light to darkness whoever that truth teller may be.
This is the low frequency that the white race resides in. Which is why they can do the most inhumane acts and still be able to function without flinching at the slightest exposure.
And example of this would be Stephen Collins from the hit show 7th Heaven that Jessica Biel, Justin Timberlake’s wife co-starred in. He admitted on national television that he was/is a child molester. And the public didn’t bat an eye.
This movie would have set a precedent of independent black film makers to create movies based on history that shows black people in unconventional form as not being subservient and submissive to “Massa” but bringing vengeance and atonement to those that died on their sword and shield fighting for black freedom. White Hollywood only wants films about slavery where we don’t question their authority let alone a mass revolt. This is “Colonial America” hates Haiti so much because they fought against the West an won. Hollywood would never make a film about that. But they lover their horror movies to be based and inspired by true events.

Which is why the white conservative media is able to bring decade plus old cases back from the dead to destroy the image of our most successful influential African American celebrities.
Black women are mostly effected by this in a reactionary sense. Black men are proactive but both are equally used to drive the narrative that is as a whole are the reason our conditions prevail. You would have to be a fool to believe white people care about rape victims in a general sense when we know this statistic about their true nature goes unreported.
White men commit 66.9% of assaults on family members and children, 47% of murders , 73.3% of sex offenses, 65% of forcible rape, 63% of aggravated assault, 69% of burglary, 75.4% of vandalism, 59% of violent crime, 78% of arson, 63% of auto theft , 58% of suspicion, 68.7% of fraud etc… Also 88% of Serial Killers and Serial Rapists are white males.

But, this is what really goes on in their gated communities. And none of them report these very common problems to law enforcement. Look at that Duggar’s show “19 Kids and Counting” about the father molesting his kids and the family knew and did nothing. White people are far from oblivious as to the down right detestable behavior that goes on in their neighborhood. These people are a virus to this entire planet. You even have other white people calling for their eradication.

So true. Here in South Africa, whites hire desperate Africans to kill their white parents so that they can get their share of their stolen wealth, and Africans get the blame. It happens all the time. We had two cases where white kids would do the dirty work themselves, like killing the entire family and raping the younger children but put the blame on Africans. We’re so tired of their shit but they don’t seem to get tired of their own shit. So I assume that it must be genetics.

White people are always killing their families. All you have to do is remind them of that and they know they can’t refute it.
God is angry. He’s not playing. And nature has been warning white folks for centuries. Now, they are at negative birthrate in America–and worldwide, it’s not much better.
You reap what you sew.
I’m just waiting for Karma to finish the job.
