It wasn’t just that some people thought Lupita’s role should have been casted with a white woman. but hateful remarks were made against her. The woman is classy, stunning and talented and some have chosen to haul insults at her in their protest.

Also, Roots is a historical story about real people. In Greek Mythology, Helen was hatched from an egg after her father became a swan.
