Customer Reviews of Biography - Cinque
Great background for the theatrical movie! A&E Biograhies usually fall into two camps: either sensational and inaccurate (such as the Pocahontas Biography), or good -- as in this one on Cinque, who led the slave revolt on the Cuban ship "La Amistad" (which the film "Amistad" was based upon). This account of Cinque's life starts in Africa, and I loved that the video emphasized the fact that Africa was indeed civilized ALL BY ITSELF...without the intervention of any outside group. The video also summarizes Cinque's capture and enslavement by Spaniards, the revolt on board the "Amistad", the journey to America, the trials, and finally the return of Cinque and 35 of the surviving "Amistad" ex-slaves to Africa. The hypocrisy of the American Judicial system in freeing these Africans while millions of African Americans remained in bondage is clearly shown, as is the Abolitionist cause that wanted ALL slaves freed. This video is informative, passionate, and enlightening into a previously overlooked chapter on slavery in the Americas.
