This segment speaks on the fact that it is not the original Uncle Tom character portrayed in the book that upsets most people but the realization that popular media has wrongfully falsified what it means to be an Uncle Tom. As the video states... "staged depictions" have misled people to believe that an Uncle Tom would "sell out any black man to a white employer or slaveowners" for his benefits when this is not the case. This is a very important lesson because it teaches us that "We" as a people must always be careful as to where we get our information from because the media will and has also been known to wrongfully distort the truth to fit their insidious agendas. That's why there is so much confusion not only amongst the black communities but the world as a whole because a large portion of people relies on "mass media" for information and such.
