The protagonist and hero of our film, Colonel Ben Cameron, is portrayed as the honest and starstruck lover who wants nothing more than the love of his life at his flank. However, this proves impossible with the newly corrupt and hate-filled South created by freed blacks, so Colonel Cameron conceives the idea of ​​the KKK on the stereotypical belief that all blacks are superstitious. Dressing up as ghosts was an attempt simply to scare Southern blacks. Beliefs such as that all blacks are highly superstitious and the use of blackface are some of the many racist aspects in "The Birth of a Nation." The film also divides African Americans into some categories: the tom as the faithful slave who is always harassed and beaten, the raccoon, a black man considered disgusting and good for nothing, the pickanninies are the presentation of black children who are easily moved. and had overly expressive features, the tragic mulatto of the drop rule was a mixed black always angry because she had "corrupt" black blood, the mammy was the asexual and overweight woman who took care of the children, and the brutal black back who was centered about nothing but the desire for white women (Bogle 4-10). Each of these roles has played a significant role in discriminatorily dividing the African American community into categories and expressing false differences between African Americans and Americans.
