Numa sala perto de mim #395

The Hate You Give (2018) puts the 1989 movie Do the Right Thing in the context of the current Back Lives Matter movement. The problematic neighbourhoods are the same., where poverty and crime lead people to engage in illegal activities. Additionally, the differential attitude of the police towards blacks makes matters worse. The permanent denial of civil rights and liberties to a segregated population is simply appalling. Traumatic events witnessed by children from very young ages mark them forever. The latent conflict passes from one generation to the next in a process with no end. Breaking the cycle is hardly ever an option.
