The truth can hurt, but the truth is good for us to see.

Rating: 10/10 (30 September 2018)

This movie is very eye opening and definitely worth supporting. This is what real film should do - educate and move people. And I'm glad Hollywood is putting more and more movies out like this. As a white woman I believe that I was never fully exposed to the true civil rights movement and exactly what African Americans have endured in our country. I was raised in the Deep South, but taught to not see race. Unfortunately however too much of our history is written on a G rated level. Our history isn't a G rated film. That narrative is not what this country needs. And this history is doomed to repeat itself if we aren't exposed to the truth of our country's heritage. I'm very grateful to have seen this film and I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.
A warning though: this movie is absolutely sold as a comedy, but this is not a comedy. It has some amazing comedic moments! But those moments are there to help you swallow the pill this movie is.
