The author of this NYTripe twice mentions MLK but neglects to discuss how Dr.King spoke out against black separatists and black supremacists (such as those in the Nation of Islam, which is tied to this rhetoric in this movie).

He would not see this film as a positive role model.

I think it is a very strange dichotomy in the attitude of a portion of black America to whom MLK's call (to a nation where color doesn't matter) of:

"...I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character..."

has been given lip service by a portion of black America, but has openly been repudiated by those same people who are making color of skin the sole determinant of meaning and worth. I agree that he would be appalled by the race hucksters, and would view this film as their work.

I might not have been clear, my post at #59 would have been directed towards Winnie Mandela, who was well known for her creative work with automobile tires in her efforts to promote “equality”. And he, for all his hot air, was right on board with it.
