Who do you go to for help when, in front of a room of some of the most powerful people in LA, a policeman laughs with a man wearing a swastika *while* the mother of a man murdered by the government sobs and begs those powerful people — ignoring the cop laughing with swastika man — for justice?

HIGHEST 2 LOWEST – Something fascinating about a movie about old vs. new school rap culture snapping HARD into place when Rosie “Do The Right Thing” Perez & Anthony “Original Broadway Cast of Hamilton” Ramos play themselves at a Puerto Rican celebration through the streets of the Bronx. Great movie.
