Patriotic Propaganda & Some Historical Revisionism
No mention of the millions of people who lived here before the honkies showed, no African-Americans riding trains, vacationing, or working office jobs, just a few men engaged in physical labor & one woman on the street. Hispanics, including pre-pubescent children, are only seen sorting carrots (14:30). One "white" woman is seen working, in a laboratory. It's the Land of Opportunity alright!An earlier one that mines the same territory ("Cotton is grown in Dixie.") but keeps its patriotic pap at a lower temperature, & holds most of it until the end.When was the last time "Dixie" was used unironically?
