From acclaimed columnist and political commentator Michael Harriot, a searingly smart and bitingly hilarious retelling of untold American history that corrects the record and showcases the perspectives and experiences of Black Americans.

America’s backstory is a whitewashed mythology implanted in our collective memory. It is the story of the pilgrims on the Mayflower building a new nation. It is George Washington’s cherry tree and Abraham Lincoln's log cabin. It is the fantastic tale of slaves that spontaneously teleported themselves here with nothing but strong backs and negro spirituals. It is a sugarcoated legend based on an almost true story.

'I asked readers: What do you consider the definitive #movie about #America and why?

…

More than 3,000 comments poured in, name-checking hundreds of #movies

…

The single #film readers chose most often was “ #Idiocracy” (2006), #MikeJudge’s scathing critique of the #UnitedStates cloaked in a futuristic tale. Some commenters seemed almost sad to list it, linking it to their feelings about the country today, while more than one described it as a documentary'

With each passing day, the #unitedstates sinks deeper in the #cesspool of an egregiously #corrupt #fascist #authoritarian #state. #Rights are mere illusions under #Trump.

According to Vox, Trump has asked #SCOTUS to disregard the Convention Against Torture.
