Why is it called a Fantasy show and not Horror?

One's perspective which explains the shameful way Hollywood has depicted blacks since Birth of a Nation.

Will it really trivialize slavery though? I'd be surprised if they depicted it as anything other than a horrible alternate reality.
-
There's a difference between depicting something vs trivializing it. I'll withhold judgment until I've seen how they portray it.
-
Exactly, most are too quick to make judgment
-
Indeed. It's not fair to decry it as trivializing slavery before we've even seen the first episode. Nowhere have they said slavery is fine.

This is going to be awkward, but needs to be said: Not everyone in America thinks slavery is a bad thing.

Not awkward. Most of us know that. We're fighting, once again, for the soul of the country. Stay tuned

It's tv. Fantasy. Who cares? If you're offended don't watch.

Curious that they never make a show were Whites are enslaved or what if Reconstruction had stayed implemented? Hmm wonder why?

We should 100 percent have a speculative fiction show in which Africans in the South murder all the slave masters. No biggie. Just fiction.

I'm as liberal as they come, so I have to ask: since when is speculative fiction taboo?
-
Thank you! This isn't history...it's a "What if?" scenario. I'm sure they'll be horrific things in here. If offended, don't watch.
-
There is nothing speculative about the history and pain of slavery! Why don't they do one on the holocaust? This is in very poor taste
-
Dude... never played Wolfenstein? Man in the High Castle? Tons of books on the subject.
-
Are those shows?? Genuinely curious. If so, then you have a point.
-
HBO has a been very liberal, and I highly doubt their show is going to glorify the Confederacy's rule in the alt history.
-
To be honest, I still think it is in poor taste but I see your point. I take back what I said. Learnt something new today.
