Gotta give the thumbs up for Tom Hanks!!!

[XHermitLife]

And here I thought he was a vampire slayer. :O

anyone know the name of the violin music in the background?

Odd that there's no mention of the best selling book this is based upon. Bill O'Reilly did an outstanding job writing this, so if the movie is only half as good it will be great TV.

The Europeans started slavery since they founded America, so the rest of the world isn't so perfect either.

Dear NationalGeographic, would you please upload more educational and interesting wildlife, scientific, astronomical videos ... etc?

Thank you

Not only did Tom Hanks narrate this movie, he is also a distance relative of Abraham Lincoln, it was really fitting having one of his surviving relatives narrate this movie.

You can't "Constitutionally" leave a union, especially if it is to perpetuate human slavery.

[ViNcThAvNgR]

I agree, but this will be cool to watch.
But what's happening to Animal Planet and Discovery is something I don't want for Discovery :(

[chibiprussia]

Lol I love how no one would say this to the Lincoln family line. Even tho it ended in the 1980s there might be someone closely related to him or to him in heaven etc cowards,

[SkyScrapper]
