A new site has just gone up to honor the history of 12 Years a Slave and the life of Solomon Northup. The timeline goes from Northup’s freedom all the way up to the Civil Rights act of 1964, something that would tear apart the South as the government tried to enact the law. Check it out!
Oops…
For visual effects, World War Z instead of the non-contending Man of Steel
With exactly 3 hours to go, my full predix…
