Of course, it was expected black moviegoers would turn out for it but now white liberal moviegoers will feel obligated to cough up the ten bucks at the box office too! Nothing makes people open their wallets faster than righteous indignation or guilt. Thank you deteriorating race relations thank you!
So how is the movie itself? I have no idea. I won't see it. Frankly a movie about Martin Luther King made by Holywood the traditional propaganda arm of the US government is the equivalent of trusting Oscar Schindler's legacy with Joseph Goebells.
After all these are the people that while the Doctor was protesting Vietnam were actively recruiting celebrities for the militaries own recruiting drive. I'm no expert on the reverend but how did he feel about powerful instructions repressing the poor to the point of dropping bombs on them?
We need to face the facts King was a great man but this day hasn't meant a damn thing in a long time. All it is, is a time for pho-liberal white people to pat themselves on the back and for blacks to feel like all this is getting them somewhere. I don't care how many times they interview Obama and Oprah its still the same shit.
