Exodus Movie: Hollywood White-wash More Ancient Egyptian History by Jbenue(op): 10:43pm On Jul 15, 2014
Just take a look at a the trailer for the new Hollywood Exodus film Gods and Kings, notice how all the cast members are EURO_PHUCKIN_PEAN. Why are they constantly trying to white wash Black History?

The real Moses looks Nigerian and can be cast by a Nollywood actor. There is a lot of protest on twitter.

From paintings to cinema Black People are being white washed out of history and our Nollywood actors are losing roles in big budget historical movies.

This is an economic importance of researching on how Black People have been erased from History.

Some of us ask "Why should I be interested in Ancient Egyptian history?"

You actually expect a blockbuster movie director to leave bankable names and come and pick a nollywood actor for a role. You are on a long thing.


PS why doesnt nollywood make their own exodus movie
Nobody stopped them.

I can assure you that even if Hollywood makes a movie on sango a black American would act the role. grin grin

Exactly @ Armadeo

People forget that Hollywood is in the business for one main reason ONLY... to make a buck. They can make whatever floats their boat... na their 'business'.

Black people will sit and complain forever about how blacks are being 'written out of history'... Well wise-up and write your own damn history.
