The whiteness of the writer shows
31 August 2020
First I'll say that Seith Mann is a genius Director. But it's interesting that white men (the writer is white - big mistake) can only imagine a world where Black men lose everything and are always somewhat guilty. Black victims of police malevolence are innocent full stop. The whiteness of the writer shows.

As usual the actors were phenomenal with what little they were given. Laurence Fishburne is a national treasure. Stephan James is amazing. Jasmine Cephas Jones equally amazing. The little boy - beautiful and heartbreaking. The writing just sucked. They all deserved better.

I can't wait to see real Black liberation on screen. Now that will be epic... and it is coming
