Bold of this movie to assume slave families were allowed to stay together. The women were forced to have babies as soon as they got their first period (with different men) and they did not get to keep the kids. They were literally treated like breeders. The slaves were treated like actual cattle. I wish someone would make an accurate slave movie because I have yet to see one.

Sounds like you need to watch more. Check out the tv show underground. It’s so brutal it cannot be shown on tv… master makes them breed and watches them as they do it. Now in this show…. Kizzy was about to be bred with Noah before she got sold. Her master was going to make it happen as soon as she got her period. Also, the family in thi is show was split up like 10 different times. Lol dude what u taking about?
