I find it coincidental that the first segment is from a Northern state where the blacks are

Moonrise Kingdom Moonrise Kingdom is a movie about an orphan named Sam and a girl named Suzy who fall in love and run away from home‚ ( however Sam does not have a home do to the fact that he is an orphan ).

Jared Gilman‚ Sam‚ does a great job showing the pain of being an orphan. Kara Hayward‚ Suzy‚ also did

The life-style and economic activities of hunter-gathers rendered anyone from being capable of maintaining and controlling substantial numbers of slaves while still being able to properly maintain. From the Stone Age down into the Middle Ages‚ the color of your skin was not what made you a slave.
