When They See Us | The Criminal System of Injustice Featurette | Netflix
/ netflix
Five teens from Harlem become trapped in a nightmare when they're falsely accused of a brutal attack in Central Park. Based on the true story.
This show deserves EVERY award. The whole shows cast/staff did a phenomenal job
yeah
Except Felicity and the actors who played the cops!
@@raineyj560 SO true!
Wilfredo Rivera it was like being immersed head first in ice cold water and held there for a while!! This movie is AMAZING!! Emotions I forgot I had came rushing forward!! Wow!
@@raineyj560 they are actors... they play a role...
I felt sooo bad for Korey in part 4. All the guy did was follow his friend to the precinct
Adejoh hojedA his part really made me cry
Adejoh hojedA I know it really sucks. He did good but I wished he woke up after waiting for an hour and go home 😔😞
Adejoh hojedA I was balling my eyes out in the scene where he was at the carnival with his girlfriend. His life was going perfectly until he was accused.
@@WizardWank3r: me too! I wasn't familiar with this case before watching so I thought at this scene, Korey had died in prison and the carnival with his girl was his heaven. I was so convinced and immediately started to ball my eyes out. I'm so glad he survived tho
Just one bad decision, which was really an act of kindness n ultimately life changing
The actor who played korey is a force to be reckoned with! Everybody did great but I literally felt the fear in koreys eyes.
This is so true, holy shit what an Oscar worthy performance. The dude is a legendary actor!
Emty yes he deserves ALL the awards for this role! He really became Korey wise!
Absolutely great talent
His name is Jharrel Jerome! I Think 😂😅❤👋
Just seeing Kory smile for a sec warms my heart. The system broke him. I am still bitter. They have been through hell. They deserve all the coins. I hope they continue to heal and bring awareness to the injustice that is still going on of poc, predominantly the youth

To every single person that was involved in the unnecessary trauma those children endured, your judgment day will come.
And they will feel no remorse what so ever.
Amen Hallelujah yessss
@@ayeyonia4577 they may not feel remorse...but they will feel the wrath of their creator.
i hope i get front seat when God asks them WHY?
@@NanC777 you are the idiot brainwashed to believe WHITE LIES. Donald Trump wanted them EXECUTED from the start and took money out his own pocket to place adds in newspapers so WHITE people like yourself could think they're "guilty." Now since you 'RACIST' fucks like to cover for each other where's your proof otherwise, you have none. Just one 'racist' asshole covering for the next. (YOU'LL TIME IS SOON AT AN END!)
Heartbreaking truth of these boys’ reality. I shed tears during parts 1-3 but Korey Wise’s story in part 4 brought out a deep deep hurtful agony filled cry that I was not prepared for. I am so thankful to Ava for telling the REAL story in such a respectful way, and thankful for the cast for using their talents to tell the story of snatched youths by the the “justice system”. Everyone was phenomenal but we MUST give Jherrell Jerome all of his things for his portrayal of Korey Wise. My god....
TinaSade same here he got the worse, went to a real prison for 13 years, man that movie was deep
jherrell jerome’s performance was absolutely beautiful and i imagine it was only the surface level of what korey wise actually went through and suffered all those years...WHAT A STRONG MAN🙏🏾🙏🏾
Girl... part 4 did the same to me, I cried for 45min straight. Such phenomenal acting, I was able to feel every part of korey's agony. Which of course cant come close to what he went thru... but GD!
The police knew those boys were innocent. They just wanted to hurry up and close the case so they could be looked at as heroes for being quick and catching her attacker.
ShonColle they’re lazy and cowards without their guns.
But why u need to convict 5? 1 or 2 sacrificed should be enough.
yupp. that's what they do
I can't help but feel agony for the wrongfully convicted and more so the ones who are on death roll or have already been killed even when innocent.
And what the hell are you supposed to do? You know you're innocent, which is why you don't take a plea deal because that makes you a liar and you would be owning up to "your crimes." So you take your chances on the jury and you end up with an even worse sentence. There's no way out of it when the cards are already dealt against you.
mixingrecords 1 is 1 too many! They thought it was a gang rape, they’d look more heroic the more they arrest.
I have never watched something that made me sooo sad, so angry, especially the first episode. My God, how did we allow that to happen to those boys... i felt sick to my stomack and i am still very sad...
Having said that, what a master piece! Everything, writing, performances, its the show of the year on netflix!
I just want to hug those kids!
Ms. Duvarney, keep bringing us more pearls and diamonds like this.
And Thank you!!
Love from Brazil
Couldn't have said it any better!
Part 4 was the most difficult to watch. Just heartbreaking..
Yea, part 4 was really heartbreaking. I had to pause in between and take deep breaths
The second he picked up the phone & his momma said... "somebody loves you etc" The waterworks started for me. I felt like I was in the moment. I was so happy for them... If Korey didnt decline the parole every time, I just wonder if their names would have ever gotten cleared.
Oh great you just ruined it for me
@@rockhero2274 O darn, just watch it anyway.
@@rockhero2274 it's a true story how can it be fukin ruined?
The director and the writers made an amazing job. It is a heartbreaking story.
This deserves an Emmy 🙌🏾
Sooo true... at least get nominated
Yes it doesl
This deserves the highest honored award
"When you incarcirate one person, you incarcirate their family"
Watching this literally made me wanna vomit. Good God this world is full of evil people
vs mars evil... the right word is RACIST
@@EstrellaDelSur23 racism is evil
vs mars Yes and that Prosecuting Attorney is STILL in denial.
@@ericbrooks939 there was an innocent white man who wrongfully killed by a police officer in the most brutal way. He was white. Look it up. This hurt me just as much as the central park 5. Its on utube
@@ericbrooks939 i promise u i am a black women using Someone else phone.
In my personal opinion... ANYONE that can give this a thumbs down... “YOU ARE A PART OF THE PROBLEM!” PERIOD!!!
Sissy ass hiding white people.
That's is why football player taking a knee!!!
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The football player has a name
judetunes1
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 on it
RIGHT. 👏🏾
Kapernick is a legend for that. It’s a shame the majority of NFL players let him hang along even though it’s over 70% black. They could’ve really done something special if they united together!
Pissed me off. Then I saw a program about two weeks ago on a major network. They are still trying to say these guys had something to do with the rape. SMDH. Black and brown is a race/color, not a damn crime. Survive and spend that money guys. Thanks Ava.
The goal should at this point should be for them to LIVE. they already survived
The story broke my heart but everyone apart of this did an amazing job.
Incredible****
Excellent
Korey melted my heart in part 4. Korey just wanted to prove he was innocent.
13 years in jail for walking your friend to the police stations is one the craziest things I’ve ever heard
@@Thabo616 and all the things he had to endure while in there... My heart aches for him and the same time I'm glad he's here to tell his story, he is indeed a survivor and the world is a better place for having him in it.
@@Thabo616 too crazy, just beyond imaginable, you would never imagine that would ever happen but it did, just sad ☹️
Ms. DuVernay did the damn thing on this series! I cried for those boys and their mothers. This also made me angry! The shear calculated justice system screams reform NOW! No person under the age of 18 should be interrogated without a guardian and/or lawyer being present. A minor cannot sign off on a job permit, school registries, etc; so, why is it by law a 16 yr old can wave his/her rights to an attorney?!! A 16 yr old can’t even purchase cigarettes (in some states), nor liquor; can’t vote, can’t get married without parental consent. So it is paramount when it comes to the justice system that a person under 18 must never be left alone with a cop/investigator.
If you haven't seen this show yet, watch it. It's frustrating and heartbreaking. The corruption and racial discrimination of the police and investigators is sickening. The justice system failed these men, and it will happen again to someone else.
This is exactly why Kap took a knee, prime example of what is still happening to this day.
This was so heartbreaking to watch
Romae Daley i had to skip some scenes cuz I couldn’t watch it 🤦🏾♀️now I’m here in bed tryna sleep but this story it’s running thru my head like 😫
This whole movie was so heartbreaking, but Korey’s story was sooo sad :(
This happens to almost every black person including me. I'm not surprised
Wilt Chamberlain this didn’t happen to me
Saffira B remember the part where he was having a flashback of him at the carnival with his girlfriend? That scene made me cry the most.
Burnt Turtles yesss 😭
For the Love of my peoples 4life no not yet! I’m gonna look it up 😁
This film is so difficult to watch. I was cringing the whole time. So sad and terrible but glad the story is being told.
how can you cringe
Fanny C Greene same here. I was a senior in 89 and my heart broke for them. I have watched and stopped watched and stopped.....only 20 mins in. It is so hard.
5ft 8 they mean cringing at how this is our reality and it still happens now and how they probably wish it never happened
5ft 8 ( I’m thinking about the perspective of the person that wrote it )
Could hardly breathe in part 1. Was angered throughout parts 2 and 3. Cried through much of part 4. Not only do they deserve to be exonerated and the money from judgments awarded, but those who railroaded them should now spend 6-14 years behind bars in the system those dishonest and dishonorable individuals corruptly used in trying to destroy these young men. Hard to watch, but a crucial piece of history to absorb.
Korey is a soldier. He is a survivor. And what happened to him was inexcusable. And those wrenches, Fairstein and Leadrer should pay for their sins.
This is terrible I’m glad this is speaking out about it. Ava is amazing at what she does. ❤️
Yessss
i was listening the other day Dax Shepard's podcast. he was talking with Jerry Buting who is a criminal defense attorney. the podcast was really interesting. they talked all about the justice system. Jerry said that at the least there is 1% in the prisons that is innocent. there are about 2 million people in prisons in America. so if you take that 1% then that's 20,000 innocent people in jail right now. this stuff is really mind blowing and heart breaking.
What's the podcast called
@@TheOverrattedone it's called armchair expert.
1% sounds minor,insignificant but when you realize that it amounts to any number of people's lives, 1% becomes heavy.
That’s the lowest estimate I’ve heard. I’ve read 2-5%. We have a 90%+ plea rate. How many innocent people copped plea’s on a lawyers advice or because the plea sentence was 5-10 and the possible trial sentence was 25-life or something comparable? How many innocent people are locked up pre-trial because they can’t afford bail? I believe the real number is in the 100’s of thousands in any given year. Our criminal justice system is fucked up.
That's a college campus!
The people too emotionally wary of this film are likely those who already understand the message. I hope those who are unaware do not go through this pain without leaving with a new understanding.
this better get some kind of award or i’m moving to the moon
I’m glad they are alive to tell their stories, they are survivors, and they have left their imprint on American history and it’s reoccurring unjust system.
Am still in tears....Thank you Ava for giving them a voice.
I’ve seen many crime stories base on true events and they were as well innocent but this broke me in ways I can’t explain and left me completely heartbroken for these men 😞💔
6:00 in love with this moment. It feels so good seeing Korey smile after all those shit. God bless you man.
Ava directing the new gods cant wait for that one she's truly an amazing director and god bless this 5 mens
I balled my eyes out no lie when I saw Korey break down to that CO 😢😢😢😢 excellent series 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Korey if you ever see this I just want you to know you’re such a brave man, true friend, strong, smart and most of all unbreakable!! God Bless all of you 5 men 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Yeah. It's so hard being black
Fight For Your Freedom...Hope Is Here...We Must Make A Stand " Together " They Getting Richer On The Street & The System ..The Game Is To Be Played Or To Play On..They Don't Play Fair
The fact that black people have to fight in order to survive is just heart breaking
So can we make everyone in law enforcement who was involved with the arrests with the questioning and abuse the prosecutors, can they all pay for the wrong they did? Not one person who was involved in this case should be allowed to walk free without any repercussions.
Unfortunately, the prosecutors have immunity. Only a civil case can be brought and calling for boycotts and resignations. LInda Fairstein and the DA, made a lot of money off of the wrongful convictions. Only going to hell will equal proper payback, for these women.
I cried soo many times while watching. I had to watch in multiple sittings this was a story that needed to be told this way. thank you Ava & thanks you Netflix for this platform
Watching this has me angry, hurt, can't stop the tears from falling and in the same breath I am soo happy they are all home. I am soo thankful to GOD that he gave them a MIRACLE. I am soo thankful. Thank you Ava and your entire team for all the work you all put in to tell this story. This is truly a MIRACLE!
Man, it’s tough to watch this in one sitting...You’re highly pissed and frustrated after watching the first 3; then when you get to Korey’s episode, you’re just feeling broken and drained....Korey Wise has the heart, courage, and spirit of an ancient warrior.... Strength, peace-of-mind, and great blessings to all five and their families.
This series is the best that Netflix has produced and they need to win n award for it
amazing series. Acting was outstanding. felt so so bad for Korey (but hey gotta love that hug between Korey and the actor Korey)
And the smile that followed.
I just stumbled across this on Netflix and this is going to blow up. What an amazing heart wrenching miniseries. The acting was superb... the storyline was incredible. I felt like these guys were my brothers
what storyline? you speak about it like it's Stranger Things or something. this isn't a work of fiction. this is life.
@I.N. Turrner DUH!!!! omg you can't be that stupid to think the comparison was accidental. of all shows i choose that one. urgh. that's enough internet for me today. the level of sheer stupidity is mindblowing. 🙄
@@JenJHayden Who said anything about it being fiction? A storyline is simply a narrative which can be fiction or non fiction. The way in which they retold the story (which I am aware is a true story) was perfection because it captured the essence of it, thats the point.
Amazing movie! I cried, but was very blessed to see after all they have been through they had a purpose and prevailed in spite of all the wrong doing and odds against them. ✊🏾🙏🏽
I wasn’t ready for part 4. The young actor who portrayed korey, I hope he gets some kind of award. All the kids did a great job, but he was the stand out..
I agree.
Absolutely! He was the best.
Of course he's an outstanding actor
The actor jharrel jerome played both young korey and adult korey

*The guy who played ‘’Korey Wise’’ (Jharrel Jerome) deserves all the Acting Awards known to Man💯He acted his ass off in the 4th episode....I know I can’t be the only one who Felt His Pain through the Tv Screen!! He played as the child and the adult of Korey and he seriously going to have a BRIGHT FUTURE in acting 4Sho💯💪🏾*
Watching Korey....got me chocked up.
This series is so important. Watching it almost made me cry but I got through it. Everyone should watch this at least once, even if it will be unsettling for some.
Hands down, one of the BEST tv shows made. A roller coaster of emotions!
They did an amazing job... it’s an outstanding series
This was such a great mini series. Thank you Netflix for allowing this story to be shared with so many of us. I hope you continue to bring light to similar situations, so that we all stay cognizant of the injustice in the world and the many innocent men, women, and children behind bars due to the injustice perpetrated by Justice.
I don't remember the last time I cried this hard. It was but wrenching..
This movie was very difficult to watch. Broke my heart. These acts still go on today. I literally 😭😭😭😭😭😭.
Im watching now..its so hard to watch bc i have an enormous amount of
anger😡 The officers should have been held to every level of consequence or jail. Money cant give these young innocent boys the time they've lost in life.
This film brought out every emotion imaginable! I loved it and hated it at the same time! I'm glad they got to share their story! This was needed!!! We've gotta do better!!!
I just finished watching it all, I have to say it was really good got me feeling mixed emotions 😩 Thank you Ava sharing their story!
I just said the same thing I experienced so many damn emotions I cut it out for a second
@@cheapskatedamack I had to stop it.
Thank you to Ava for this. Awareness needs to continue on this platform to promote the change that has been needed for far too long
This is all heartbreaking,such injustice perpetuated by such ignorance and arrogance
God bless the man, family and the people that worked constructing this film.
This movie shook me to my core! Oprah and Ava have made BLACK GIRL MAGIC with this one! I encourage every woman raising young brown boys and Girls to make this a family must see! Riveting, Leaves you speechless and I think my iwatch was about to call 911 cus I kept forgetting to BREATHE!!! My God this movie is OUTSTANDING!
.."fight for your freedom young brothers and sisters..."
Well done, Queen Ava!! PHENOMENAL WORK!
THIS IS AMERICA.....justice system again...failed us......,This movie speaks volumes..on the lives of our youths..the justice system..and how this whole thing affected the boys lives as well as their families.,.Great Movie****. .everything about this movie was heartfelt. My heart and prayers then and now still go our to these men and their families and all they endured.Excellent casting..omg..excellent.
Cookie Woo the system is operating exactly the way it was designed to and that’s not to protect black and brown people.
I Will Rock Your Face! It’s unfortunate anyone is put to death and they’re innocent. Will you provide the statistics based on race and which race it affects disproportionately? Most exonerees released from prison found not guilty are black or brown.🤷🏽♀️
@@my.0224 I'm saying the movies was excellently written ..I agree that our system is unbalanced..I'm,in fui agreement..And yes.on a personal level..I've seen those sent to prison unlawfully..Its wrong.
Cookie Woo reply was directed to I Will Rock Your Face.
@@my.0224gotcha
The whole situation is Mess Up. Those boys had no Chance.
Everyone in this series was absolutely outstanding. I watched it all in one sitting, and afterwards I had never felt so heavy. This was heart wrenching.
Where is the cruel prosecutor at this day and time??. Is the...still alive? Because this makes me wonder do the prosecutors or the Crooked detectives and policeman ever go back and look at the unjust politics that they proposed. And do they understand they seriously hurt people and their families?
I don’t think I can watch this! I keep seeing interviews and snippets of these scenes and I can’t contain the tears. It’s crazy😐
This show was AMAZING. It shows you how Just US are guilty until proven innocent. I was extremely ANGRY what they did to those innocent babies.
This story had me in tears from the beginning until the end. Ava and the cast did an amazing job humanizing these men and telling their stories. We were able to actualy see who they were, just kids who were thrown away by the judicial system. It was raw, painful and powerful. Salute to Raymond, Kevin, Antron, Yusef, and Khorey.
The "Justice" System is unjust for all.
I totaly agree ... What a Lost😞
@I.N. Turrner
For all.
This was such a sad, real
story. I hope they're okay. Honestly, I can't imagine being in such a horrible state. They deserve all the love they could get.
@I.N. Turrner i'm struggling to understand what the original poster means about how the justice system is unjust for all. that makes no sense. but to each their own. ignorance is bliss. some of us know first hand how silly that sounds.
@I.N. Turrner that was the whole point of statement. you are not saying anything i don't already know. there are parallels.
This happens to so many black boys, girls, women and men every day. The whole point is to remind black people of their second-class status, of their inhumanity. This series is brilliant.
I tear up every time i see a story of these men and this show pop up in my news feed. A show or movie has not touched me the way this has in a long time. I'm so glad that this story was shared. I for one, not living in the US and being so young did not know about it until i saw it popped up on Netflix so i'm glad that i know now what happened. Also, that guy that played Korey.. omg he makes me cry every time i see his face because he did such a great job. Kudos to all the actors but that one... WOW. Korey Wise really is a survivor.
Oh god this interview just made me cry ALL OVER AGAIN!
Y'all I'm still crying, they were just babies!! Their youth was stripped and it wasn't right.
Thank You Ava For Bringing This Story Back To Life For Us Younger Generation. Thank You Antron, Yusef, Kevin, Raymond, and Korey For Surviving. I Pray God Continues To Bless You All For The Sinful Unjust Punishment Put Upon You By Monsters. Lastly, Korey Wise You Are More Than A Survivor. Much More--You Are A Hero.
Just go off watching this and I havent cried so much in a long time. What Korey Wise went through is so tragic. But each of them have done so much since there release I'm proud of them
Ava what the fuck. I have to work in the morning!!!! You got me out here binge watching and watching interviews, reading news articles, investigating, researching, and sending very angry tweets... I said I'll watch one. ITS BEEN 7 HOURS!!!!!
Phenomenal job on the Writing, Directing, Acting! Everything! Great Series!
just want to state for the record that Ava DuVernay better not mess up the Prince Documentary by portraying him as some gay or bisexual black man who believed in this current wave that is sweeping America and being propagated throughout the world! PRINCE was a STRAIGHT BLACK MAN despite his attire and appearance! In addition, he believed that a man should be with a woman was the natural order of God and anything outside of that union was not ordained by God'. Therefore, I don't want Ava's documentary insinuating that Prince was an ally of the LGBT movement- he was not! Just because he had W&L in his band and worked with them individually on projects - this does not mean he agreed with and was a champion of their lifestyle. Prince did indeed empower women in his circle and gave them opportunities by ways of employing them however, don't get it twisted and try to make him the poster boy of being a pro feminist in this current climate. He loved Women, he loved their beauty, their intellect and their Auras and everything that made them a woman but WHAT he didn't love was the bearded lady concept that a lot of whyte feminist try to project to the other women in this country and around the world! So please don't pepper Janelle Monae all throughout his documentary saying he was a believer in LBGT people or causes because that would not be accurate! Hell he didn't even know she was like that, she only revealed her sexuality after his passing. Knowing Prince, he may have been trying to get with her in the biblical sense. Anyway, Prince believed in the union between a woman and a man working together hand to hand in order to fulfill God's Laws which Whyte feminist are in direct opposition to that concept. Nonetheless, Prince was indeed a complex man to the fullest extent (true Gemni), he was a HUE--MAN being. Nevertheless, these multifaceted complexities of Prince's character is indeed a daunting task that Ava has taking on by directing this PRINCE documentary. She cannot portray him to be everything to everybody but what we can say for certain that he was: BLACK, Straight, Short, a Genius, A Musician, A Performer, a Brother, A son, a Friend, a Lover, A Boss, A husband, A father and an Inspiration to the World! What he wasn't was a contributor to the foolishness that is currently being propagated by these whyte feminists, liberals ( along with gays and lesbians) & conservatives. He was a righteous black man! So whatever agenda or narrative that Ava's documentary about Prince try to depict, please remember the real TRUTH and MESSAGE about who Prince REALLY WAS and will always be found within the MUSIC!
I really want to see this but as a black man myself it's going to be hard to get through it
Donnie Thewiseone I encourage you with all my heart to see it. You will cry, you will be angry, but you have to see it.
I just watch part one and I had to relax because the anger build up. I dont have nothing against White People but I cant be around no matter how good of a person they can be I just cant take a chance..
Your heart will feel like it's being ripped out of your chest. You will feel strong anger afterwards.
As a black woman It broke my heart. To know that your fathers, brothers and even sons could be a victim 😔 it’s a must watch and it made me love black men even more. It’s not easy to be black but we will always love and support you ❤️
I just finished watching this and my God I cried the whole my heart goes to these Men I can never imagine what they went through specially korey wise that man had it bad I thank God he kept his faith and believed in himself the whole time I was moved by this series God bless the central park 5 God bless everyone out there who had been wrongfully convicted may God have your back and shout the guard that gave his heart to Korey while he was locked up shout out to Robert's if that was his real name god bless everyone out here damn I'm so moved right now.
So what happened at the end, do they get to go home?
I just watched the 1st episode and it just pissed me off. I need to pace myself. I just can’t binged watch it.
It's not A movie ?
I'm cool with that
Same, most series I can binge watch without a problem but this one was rough, you feel the pain and you known it happen to innocent children and their familes !
Listen I had to take breaks within the espisodes. I hear you.
6:00 i hope he keeps that smile forever
I was crying so much wen I saw this😭😭😭
this was created so well to show the true injustice of the criminal justice system.These young men that were wrongfully accused. This broke my heart into a million pieces!!! NO amount of money can take away all the time, the hurt, the pain, mentally and physically that each one of them went through.
I literally finished and started the whole thing this morning and I love it and I cried so much! This brings so much awareness to this topic!
Above awards and recognition that this series deserves I believe the biggest take away is that parents and youth need to be educated on individual rights in schools to aid in avoiding the injustices that can be had. Racism and classism also needs to be continually educated upon as a sickening and harmful practice towards humanity.
My heart broke 😭😭
Breathtakingly painful to watch. Thank you Ava for shedding a light on so many untold stories. This is truly gold.
This show is just powerful made me angry and scared, the cast was amazing. The series to me felt like watching a horror movie.
Thankyou Netflix. Finally the story is being told to the public. This film deserves Award and those people who survived deserve award and applause from us. I thank you Netflix for this show. I can't stop crying. This is beyond Amazing.
Alright Netflix, I'll reactivate my account to watch this!
Man, this comment section is gonna be an interesting one.
It's going to be filled with racist and ignorant comments. What else is new with humanity😔
I haven’t seen any yet but one.
Thank 🙏🏾💎🙏🏾 You Ava!!
This story is not just about the 5 boys, it’s not just about the American Justice system, for me it’s about giving light to those people who are in Jail for crimes they did not commit.
I’m Nigerian and this show made me weep because I know that there are possibly thousands of people in our prisons in Nigeria wasting away for crimes they did not commit, my tears were tears of powerlessness. At least America has DNA, finger printing, etc to potentially if lucky exonerate boys like these but we don’t have that, it’s sad, it’s heartbreaking.
This show is a most powerful statement against a racially biased injustice system. For those happy ending five, how many thousands lives have been and still are definitively wasted. Miracles dont happen every day. Every one who has a conscience must get involved, especially if they have a public voice.
Actors did a phenomenal job in this !!
