@thestorytimeguy: Theres so many amazing African American Folktales out there, we dont need to keep telling slave stories especially because they all involve a white man helping slaves. All these stories and more can be found in The Annotated African American Folktalea by Tatar and Gates #africanamerican #folktales #usa #johnhenry #movies
isn't John Henry story tied to slavery? I could be wrong but isn't his Hammer made from shackles? or am I remembering that from a different story?

I swear half the time I watch your videos I get upset🤣 because Hollywood could’ve been making better supernatural/ horror films and all we get are remakes and sequels

Honestly, I thought a time displaced John Henry coming across Thor's hammer would make a great character

With all the paranormal & folk tale based movies or series, been thinking a John Henry development would make a script work. Gonna read up on rest.

Idk. What the book was called but there was one I read as a kid about how people would earn their braids for doing something heroic or honorable. In the story the girl earned her braids by saving
