For a show claiming to be an historical account of slavery and the struggle of slaves for freedom, this show leaves out any political context of the time. One of the main characters is running for the Senate and yet there is no mention of his political party. I find this very suspect, as ALL slave owners were DEMOCRATS. To tell the story of slavery, you must include the politics that allowed it to exist. This is an entertaining show but lacking any "will" to explore the truth.
