African-American Women in WWII

Rize Movie Trailer

Rize is an amazing movie. Its a great look into the experiences of urban youth today. When I saw it, it brought out a mix of emotions; tears, laughter, anger the works. I had to watch it in Manhattan, which pissed me off. The local Brooklyn spots were not showing such a great film that more African Amercan youth and parents should have seen. Rent it or better yet buy it! Rize is worth it.

Hotel Rwanda

Hotel Rwanda is a great must see movie. In an eery way the events of Hurricane Katrina remind me of the horrors Blacks went through in Rwanda. In both instances, blacks were denied timely and quality aid because they were poor and publicly thought of as useless to anyone. It's sad that you have to be a commodity to command any form of worth in the eyes of the money hungery and powerful.
