The movie starts out fine, then within minutes we’re back into the “blame whitey for everything.”
I sat fuming for most of the movie, thinking the younger generation of kids are going to think “again” that there was not one decent white person living in the 1960s with regard to treating black people with dignity.
No, you add to it the stereotype of Kevin Costner acting like the king pin, who intervenes when he finds out that the black workers had to walk a mile to their own bathroom.
The movie is disappointing and again has the objective of reintroducing racial stereotypes.
Even at the end of the movie, when the white supervisor had the chance to show respect, dignity and class...they make sure that he doesn’t, as if prejudice is in the genes of all white people.
Don’t waste your money.
These movies and their messages fall on deaf ears for anyone under 50; all we’ve seen is decades of underserved diplomas, degrees, jobs, and promotions given to blacks to promote “diversity”.
As long as affirmative action is allowed to stand legally, these movies “keep it real” as much as SpongeBob Squarepants...
I figured out what it would be like from the trailer, and decided ahead of time to not bother.

Well, that’s true of most Democrats and that’s all movie people know.
