Eye Opening

Rating: 7/10 (14 August 2018)

Spike Lee and Jordan Peele really create a conversation starter here. I expected this film to be a lighter humorous take on the seemingly darker topic matter, but they really showed the true nature. The cynical actions behind the klansman are so sickening to witness. The reality that was still so prevalent such a short time ago is extremely eye opening. Very much an educational piece. The clips in the end were also a fantastic addition, these people are still at large today and are very much overlooked by us. The progress made in the last few decades is great, but the fact that our president can't condemn this behavior is shocking. What a great message and piece of art.
