It wasn't as simple as paying a native. It was a huge industry; a slave hub.

This thread is starting to smell like the poli board.

In an effort to bring it back to somewhat movie board relevance, I'll say I saw Root when it first came out and never got the idea they were presenting it as some kind of documentary. Seems to me that pretty much every historical fiction is hollywooded up to some extent. I mentioned Braveheart earlier but what about Rob Roy? Tombstone?Heck even Band of Brothers I think took some liberties. Not even to mention things like the 10 commandments.
