TARZAN'S Historical Fantasy Explained!
Hollywood has done a Grave injustice to Black people in America, and around the world with the films titled TARZAN.
These films portrayed a White or Caucasian male, and a White female mate, having TOTAL control of the animals in Africa's forests, and inhabitants.
This Fallacy was sold to Americans and to the colonies of Britain, Spain, France, and The Dutch, all over the world via the movies.
I've seen most of them as a child in Guyana formerly (British Guiana).
But it was not until I became an adult, and understood what had happened to me psychologically as a child, into believing that such nonsense was possible.
When in reality, no Black African male ever could control those animals, or control them in any significant way. Much less swing from Tree To Tree on a vine or rope, shouting like a FOOL in the process.
