There was racism onTitanic.

i was in a cd/dvd store buying some movies when i overheard a white couple talking about the Titanic movie. how it was oh so good and romantic and chit like that. i watched this movie a couple of times but i never understood the whole thing. all i saw was the poor was segegrated from the rich and i never did see any blacks in it either. so i did a little research on it. i found out that there was a rich black family on there. there weren't too much to talk about but they did experience harsh treatments from the white snobby crackers. i knew there was something to it. i also knew that white's making this movie wasn't even telling the truth. to me titanic is bullchit. yes i should have known but did yall know that there was a rich black family that sailed on the Titanic? those that didn't then read Titanic - Panache Report for more info.

Yeah.
Personally I prefer Rudy Ray Moore's version of the story of the titanic.

I never liked this movie one of the most over hyped movie in cinema history. I still don't know what all the fuss is about.

Never liked that movie Titanic. And I'm not surprised to hear that a rich black family was on the ship and they got mistreated. That movie was corny and the fact that the band stayed on the ship and kept playing was stupid. I'm like Steve Harvey:

What black band do you know would've played while the ship was going down? Kool And The Gangd would've been unpluggin' ***......

@ Lediamand there is no fuss. it's just the fact that white people see a whole different perspective than blacks do.

No, according to many media they made this movie seem like it was the best thing since slice bread, I just never seen what was so good about it other than the great visual effects.
