Yeah, this is my problem.
And I feel very guilty because of it.
I don't want to go through a painful emotional experience, especially since I already understand that slavery wasn't very nice. What am I going to think at the end of the movie? "Aha, I was right. Slavery was awful."
But since my life is extraordinarily privileged (relatively speaking), I'm sure I can sit through a fucking movie. I should be able to watch a horror since I don't live one.
Ah, the guilt.
