Today I watched Samuel L. Jackson in, "A Time To Kill"

I bawled like a baby, such a tragic reminder of our insidious history of racism in this country. Fueled even worse now from Trump's cult of hatred. At least it has both a hopeful and happy ending.

It is an enjoyable movie, but as a statement about racism it gets on my nerves.
The focus is all on the white characters. Matthew McConnaghey is treated as a White Saviour

And that whole scene of the child being raped and "imagine that she was qhite" really bothers me.

@InOtterWords Sorry you felt that way. I think it's a great lesson for younger folks who have never seen this tragic side of American history.
