Goldberg acknowledges that the film’s power is in its exclusive cast sharing their personal experiences. But his film fails to realize that it, too, is a player in platforming an already undefeated beast. Go to Full Review

There’s little here that you haven’t heard before, but it's impressive how fluidly the movie encompasses a half century in which covert racism has grown and thrived, much to the detriment of the Democratic Party. Go to Full Review
Linda and Al Lerner Movies and Shakers Jun 2
Goldberg’s credentials are beyond reproach. But we wanted an inkling of what or who could stop exacerbating the racial divisions and white victimization of a country on the brink of authoritarianism. Hoping the people who need to see this film, see it. Go to Full Review
