500 Years Later - A Film All Africans Must Watch !

DVD Description
Crime, drugs, HIV/AIDS, poor education, inferiority complex, low expectation, poverty, corruption, poor health, and underdevelopment plagues people of African decent globally – Why? 500 years later from the onset of Slavery and subsequent Colonialism, Africans are still struggling for basic freedom–Why?

500 YEARS LATER is a critically acclaimed multi-award winning documentary filmed in five continents, 500 Years Later engages the authentic retrospective voice, told from the African vantage-point of those whom history has sought to silence by examining the collective atrocities that uprooted Africans from their culture and homeland.

500 Years Later is a timeless compelling journey, infused with the spirit and music of liberation that chronicles the struggle of a people who have fought and continue to fight for the most essential human right – freedom.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This incisive and bold documentary looks at history from an African perspective, examining the problems people of African descent continue to wrestle with today and finding their roots in history. Filmed on location all over the world, this film covers issues from slavery to the civil rights movement, and from colonialism to poverty and broken homes. Expansive, unflinching, and ultimately not unhopeful, 500 YEARS LATER is a no-holds-barred look at centuries of oppression and the ongoing struggle for freedom.

Please do not pirate this film, buy it to support the film makers and youselves and Africa's future.
