Thoughts on the movie Do the Right Thing

18 Upvotes

I watched it yesterday, I rent my movies from my local library I never pay for them especially with the ongoing genocide knowing that most production studios support the Zionist entity. I thought that the black power movement was actually very negatively portrayed in the movie. I find that there is very few Hollywood movies than positively portray the struggle for black liberation and the black experience in Amerikkka. Most movies tend to place white people in the role of the white savior (The Help, The Blind Side, etc are good examples of this). I think Boots Riley’s work is great and I really like The Color People. If any of you have watched Do the Right Thing let me know your thoughts.
