This is not about the Golden State killer or serial killers. This is a love letter to the True Crime hipster internet movement. It is an ode to an author. I felt it was very boring and I lost interest fast. If you are one of the few true crime addicts who spent a lot of time on the internet using basic tools to feel like a detective, then I think you would like this. If you are a normal person, who wanted to hear about an actual case, then this will leave you very disappointed.

This movie was one of Spike Lee's best. I am not a big Spike Lee fan but this movie was able to really showcase the greatness of Malcolm X.

Malcolm X is a hero not only to blacks but all people of color. He found enlightenment after years of doing wrong. Unfortunately, he went with a crooked organization in the Nation of Islam. However, through them he discovered the truth and later broke free from their clutches to see the true light.

Whites of European descent have long wanted to control the narrative. Films have been a big way for their to push their version of America into popular culture. It is always great to see movies that start to showcase the real America.

The issue with racism that engulfs American society is a white European problem. It is not a problem created by people of color. As America evolves into a country with a majority of people of color by 2041, whites will have to own up and fix their issues. How they do this is up to them and will determine how their future in America will be.

The negative reviews on here are mainly those who want everything to be "all inclusive." The same people who push out an "All Lives Matter" narrative to take steam away from a real movement with real merit.

These people tend to live in bubbles and want to push myths and lies to the masses. Their purpose to hijack important messages to play in their favor.

This movie showcases the importance for people of color to unite. The importance of orators with profound messages to speak to the masses. The importance of not relying on white European allies and instead the importance of bringing people of color together.

The one part I wish they spent more time on, is Malcolm's realization that all people of color are connected. No matter if one is African, Asian, Hispanic, or Native, they all share a common reality. Once people of color in America unite, there is no hope for injustice and inequality that has been pushed to these people for centuries.

A great movie and message. 10/10.

Americans of Indian descent have come to the USA in greater numbers since the 1960's. Prior to that, there was the Asian Exclusion Act which barred immigration from Asia. However, Americans of Indian descent have a long history in America. The first recorded newspaper clipping of an Indian (from India) in America, was just 10 years after the pilgrims landed on Playmouth Rock. The Indians were brought over as indentured servants to the British. They eventually were swapped for Africans. The Indians from that time assimilated into the African slave population. Indian Americans next came in larger numbers during the transcontinental railroad. They helped build the railroad with other Asians. Then came the racist court decisions like US v. Bhagat Singh which stripped Indians of citizenship and took away their land rights. It was doubly cruel because Bhagat Singh (like a number of other Indians) fought for the USA in World War I.

I say all this to point out that Americans of Indian descent are part of this country's history. Heck, this land was found by Europeans searching for a quicker path to India and they thought the Natives were Indian.

Indian Americans are an extremely intelligent ethnic group in America. Their children greatly outsmart all other American children. This documentary shows the hard work and dedication these kids have. It is uplifting and a great way to show the amazing talent of Americans of Indian descent.
