- From visionary filmmaker Spike Lee comes the incredible true story of an American hero. It’s the early 1970s, and Ron Stallworth (John David Washington) is the first African-American detective to serve in the Colorado Springs Police Department. Determined to make a name for himself, Stallworth bravely sets out on a dangerous mission: infiltrate and expose the Ku Klux Klan. The young detective soon recruits a more seasoned colleague, Flip Zimmerman (Adam Driver), into the undercover investigation of a lifetime. Together, they team up to take down the extremist hate group as the organization aims to sanitize its violent rhetoric to appeal to the mainstream. Produced by the team behind the Academy-Award winning "Get Out." Topher Grace, Ryan Eggold, Laura Harrier, Corey Hawkins, Jasper Pääkkönen and Ron Stallworth joined BUILD to discuss the film, "BlacKkKlansman."

As a Finnish person I'm so proud of Jasper Pääkkönen in his first American film and can't wait to see this
timo hokkanen suolanen hokkanen
He did such an awesome portrayal in the film I saw the film and went home to google him. That's how much he hit it out of the park and to find out he was Finnish was great as well.
His American accent is absolutely perfect in it. Had no idea he was Finnish until I read this comment.
HeikkiP his American accent needs A LOT of work to say the least, but in my book he was Best Supporting Actor.
ACB Films his American accent was definitely not perfect at all lmao people in my theater said they could tell he came from Europe by the way he was pronouncing certain words. If Jasper was Ryan Eggold he definitely would’ve had me fooled though.
The transition from the ending of the period piece to the ending in 2017 was really sobering to watch.

It was heartbreaking. Dead silence and horror and sorrow at the end.
I was uncomfortable thought the film. We saw it during a weekday and it was a retirement center in the theater- I didn’t know what they would say. But the end, had me in tears....
It was incredibly heartbreaking and startling. I had planned to watch it with my friends, but ended up warning them to watch it with caution. It filled me with such negative thoughts and emotions I sat in my bathroom and cried for a few minutes before I got in the shower and played some gospel music. They did such a great job. I don't think I was completely ready for that, though, particularly at the retelling of Jesse Washington's murder and the ending scenes.
I think it's telling that Topher was extremely depressed just researching hate speech and its purveyors for just a month. Imagine how people who are the targets of said hate for their entire lives feel.
He has Jewish ancestry so I'm sure that sadly, in the right circumstance he would be a target.
Spike Lee has such a good eye for picking great character actors.
Brilliant movie. I was born in the 50s and I remember writing about the ‘colour bar’ when I was in grade 3. The teacher was so impressed that he read it out to the class and made a big deal of it. Living in Australia, we used to watch this stuff on television.. Brought history flooding back watching the movie. So well done 👍.
Topher Graces casting was nothing short of brilliant, its extraordinary, Oscar performance. Wish he was in it more ..
Mr. Stallworth is so smooth and relaxed. I like him.
I just saw this. A crazy awesome film. I found myself shaking a bit in some of the more hateful scenes. Everyone needs to see this. It's entertaining yet important.
sad people hate on colour 😣
After seeing this, I really want to give Topher Grace a hug. It seems this was the worst part he has had to play thus far.
Really wanted to hear Ron Stallworth share more of his history. So thankful they had him included in this interview! 🙏🏽
So proud of Jasper Pääkkönen and all the other awesome actors as well. Greetings from Finland! 🖤
The other two guys in the back did such a scary convincing job. It is weird to say they were great but they were.
Jolting, I saw and walked out of the theater crying. I cried for 10 mins. Easily!
Not waiting for Netflix, going to the theaters for this one. The drive in.
Oscarworthy on so many levels!!!
Just watched this movie on demand...I was BLOWN AWAY (same with this very thought-provoking interview)!!! I’m not a particular fan of Spike Lee or his movies, BUT he deserves to win an Oscar for Best Director and/or other major categories!!! 🤗
I'm liking this channel's platform, and the openness of the questions.
Need to check this out. Get Out, Black Panther, Sorry To Bother You, Blindspotting, Blackkklansman-- what a time to be alive.
The last 5 mins made me so emotional because I feel there is no hope for our people
Topher ages very, very well
"with the right wHHite man" the emphasis lol
"Cool wHip.. You're putting too much emphasis on the (H) "c(;
Now I get it why John David Washington did that in the movie!!! The real Stallworth does it too!
Laura is a goddess!! Wow she is beautiful
What an amazing movie. If Spike Lee does not win for Best Director I would be surprised. The movie should win Best Motion Picture too. God Bless you Spike. Excellent cast and superb acting.
Excited to see this movie!
I cannot wait to see this! What a story!
Great interview...I was impressed. Kudos.
Topher Grace should periodically host a Late night show. He'd kill it.
Corey Hawkins and John Boyega need to be cast as brothers in something lol
Not your typical press junket interview segment. I'm not a Spike Lee fan. I just love great cinema. This is a GREAT movie --entertaining & important!
topher has stirred up the real wizards!
Missä kohdassa jasper puhuu lohista
Jasper: "Yah yah racism is bad blax are good... but this salmon I got in Finnish lapland this one time... it was YUGE!"
jasperi tekee läpimurron rasistileffassa. hyvä pojjka
pojjka kannattaa mustaa valtaa
Jasper was so good! I hope to see him more in movies 🎥😉😉
Topher actually looks like David Duke
Very good film. These actors all did a very good job of bring this story to life and the ending was very deep.
I can't wait to see.
Topher soo well-fucking-spoken.
Another excellent insight into an important movie. Thanks for the great work, Riki and the Build team!
Awesome movie, I just seen it today!! It made me cry in the end! It’s still so very real
Jasper is on Vikings.
C Marie no
Oscar Berg what no? He was
No he is not
Great investigation Sherlock Holmes !
Yo!! Did he just call Spike Lee, "The God"?? Whoa!!
Yello Duzzit he earned it.
Was it perhaps an insult towards your god? - Just take a rest. Whoever your godly creature may be, he is not insulted - or should try another way of life...
Spike Lee is "The GOD"? Man.. I was so certain Spike was real and not made up :/
I advise you to go 2 hours a week to the gym, 1 hour twice a week at most, but concentrated 1 or 2 sets to failure, work about 12 different exercises-all body parts - pound em hard and then take two days to rest and replenish and go after it again.. No set should end until the muscle can't move any more and then you hold it under control and move it like a gun is to your head, don't quit and then you control it back to original position, slowly, always in control. I've seen men win powerlifting contests training with only one set. of each exercise, but one set done with the adequate weight to totally fatigue the slow twitch muscles in about 1 and 1 half to 2 min slow movement both ways, both concentric and eccentric. (positive and negative) Eat good protein high fat, only natural fat preferably mostly saturated and very few carbs. Eat intermittently with 8 to 10 hour windows. Occasionally do 24 48 72 or even 4 or seven day water fasts. When you eat, eat high nutrient density foods like meat, fish and a few portions of low carb greens and fiber rich foods. Sleep is the most important "vitamin" or nutrient if you don't get enough deep and restful sleep nothing else really works. in but and then go have a life, spend time with your work, your dreams, your kids, or the kids you will make. a full body all out hour with heavy weights and resistance all you need in the gym to become a powerful, strong man. Pride yourself on never getting drunk, fulfill your comments to others and you will fulfill them to yourself. Eat what makes you strong and lean, smart and healthy. Live mindfully, like every minute counts both when you work and when you play, when your fight and when you relax, when you love and when you relax. When you wake and when you sleep. A balanced life, but a life of of achievement not of waste. Those are few of my suggestions in your life. I don't really like your spending 5 days in the gym, its not required for building your body. Rather you spend that time in the things that most to you and those you love.
- David Duke. His reply to someone's comment recently in his UA-cam interview and response to Lee's movie, "David Duke Responds to Spike Lee's BlacKkKlansman | TPS #109"
Yeah, sounds like the rant of a really _evil_ person, doesn't it?
Evil often is also still a person. People forget that. Hitler had hobbies, he also wanted to kill (and did kill) a lot of people for really awful reasons.
If you are a racist, you still get the title of evil, even if its just a small title. It doesn't make you not a person.
Google "snowflake nutrition facts". Should do it.
sounds very interesting
TORILLE!
Spike outdid himself with this film. excellent cast, and a great story.
Pääkönen. GOD DAMN IT! GET IT RIGHT! It's Pääkkönen! :)
English language makes no distinction between short and long consonants. Not many languages I know do that. Most Americans will not hear the difference between "Pääkönen" and "Pääkkönen". It may takes months of exposure to the language before the ear adapts.
I love the question at 35:51. That's really the thing that gets me sometimes... I don't condone racism but I've known people in the past who were subtly racist and some who were less subtle, and they are real people with real fears, dreams, thoughts, beliefs, etc, and who have twisted and dangerous ideologies. But if we discard them as nobodies and nothings or even jokingly suggest wiping the world of them, all that does is reinforce their ideologies and make them cling more tightly to their hate. It's incredibly hard to ask someone to "love" a racist but it seems that's the only way through this bullshit... to not retreat further into our corners but to continue to reach out and pull everyone towards the middle, towards real community and love.
You act like people haven't tried. And when those racists want to kill you and wipe you from this planet, you might find that your pleas of love might fall on deaf ears. So no, I will not take responsibility for people who choose to ostracize themselves from society by spreading hate, fear, and ignorance. I will focus my efforts on people who don't close their eyes, ears, minds, and hearts.
It's one thing for me, a white woman, to attempt to find the humanity in the monster, in an effort to get to the brass tacks of why they're racist. Meaning, talking to the people in my life, posing questions and getting to the "What happened that you think that way?" Then it's easier to explain how their views directly hurt people of color.
It's a whole other thing to ask the targets of this hate to find the humanity in racists. I mean, do we say to victims of domestic violence "Hey, this is a real human being, you should try loving them more, or it's just going to prove them right", about the person who just beat the shit out of them? No - let the abuser's therapist tackle that or something. Same thing, as racism is abuse, plain and simple. It's unreasonable to say to people of color to look at the people that hate them; look down on them; want to kill them; wish they didn't exist - and see past the monstrous behavior and try to love them.
It's also blaming the victim, to say "Well, if *we* were just nicer, maybe they won't radicalize." Nah. We're all responsible for our own behaviors, and if someone chooses to be a white supremacist, well, they get to take responsibility for the consequences of being ostracized.
But white people? Yeah, we should be having those conversations as it is. Well, with the folks that are open, like MoReilly said. A lot of us are uneducated about our own internalized racism - I know I've been and still have a lot to learn. With white supremacists? Nope. They're too far gone.
This all makes my head hurt
Do mind if I screenshot your comment. It really embodies the idea that it is not the person who is being abused job to do the emotional work to heal the abuser. This point has been made by black people but seems to fall on deaf ears unless it comes from a white person.
I LOVE THE CUBS SHIRT!!!!
Great movie 🖤🎥
Ron reppin' the Cubbies? Made my day. Fantastic story, and a fantastic movie.
The episodes of David Duke on Donahue are fascinating
Spike is dope!
37:03 And of course Jasper's last name is written incorrectly, there's another K missing.
I love Topher
David Duke is Topher Grace(just kidding) Topher Grace should of been casted in the new Venom movie. Tom Hardy did a great job.
This movie was so good everyone needs to watch it
Why he did his pops' "hmmokay!"
Well Done, Spike! Was Zack Galifinakis That 'big guy?'
26:38 that skin tho...flawless
Laura harrier she is my favourite actor
Laura is so beautiful!
I’m sorry, you get cast in a movie based on a book (based on real life) and you don’t read the book?
Torilla tavataan!! Jasper we Finns are proud of you
My Ghanaians here let me see your hands up
Yh
Jasper Pääkkönen, not Pääkönen.
The movie is a sad commentary on the current condition of our country thanks to the Asshat in the White House! I think Ron Stallworth should run for President in 2020!!!
Movie was scary as hell...lol
2:33 who's that ?
where's Adam??? ;-;
What's up with the guy at 25.46. I can't quite see him
Great movie, seemed strange how he kept calling him , why wouldn’t they use the white cop after the connections were made? And why in the hell did they send him in to protect Duke at the end, the black officer? Because they were low on staff they said? Seemed a bit ridiculous. But maybe I’m missing something.
Wait... Pääkönens moustache wasent fake?
Local_ Hotpotato kamppi liivit
Awed...
Ron Stallworth should apologize to Topher Grace.for alluding to him as David Duke
We've all come a long way in this country and I love all Spike Lee's movies. 'Do the right thing' is my favorite We're currently living in a very promising time in our country. Unemployment is low for everybody... Black unemployment specifically is at it's lowest EVER and our current American leadership is doing a phenomenal job basically with everything foreign and domestic. I was very happy to hear all our American leaders including our President denounce David Duke. Duke's political ideology has no place in the American fabric.... We have so much more work to do. Let's keep America great!
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽✊🏾
he has everyone EXCEPT the stars..HAHA..
Superior white people sitting on taller chairs... I'm kidding😂
haha, did not even realise this
Did anyone else notice that the white actors did most of the talking? This is a critique of the actors and of those who put together this BUILD Series session. We barely heard from the black woman. Us white folks need to stop putting white people at the center of everything. It's even more glaring when it happens when talking about a movie about racism.
Did anyone read into the white people being in a back and the black actors in front?
I just figured the real Ron Stallworth , who has things to say on both the movie and his own experience on which the film is based, *has* to be in front near the interviewer and the white actors on this panel all play white supremacist characters so it makes sense to put them on one line so they can easily interact when the interviewer ask them about playing those characters, they have shared insights as those roles share a lot and they would have to talk to each others back and look over their shoulder to talk to each other or look straight ahead if some of them sat in front.
Seems like a sensible arrangement.
The white supremacists in the film probably weren't to interact so although they were in the movie together they may not even really know each other. My theory
Stephen Kessen No
You’re focusing to hard.
Try to play movie night just took my money and I will get my 3.99 for movie I never watched messed up put money back on card please
At last there's a Finnish actor who speaks proper English with a good accent and not that awful awful "Finglish"!
He smacks so freaking much omg
I'm excited to see the movie but they are giving way too many compliments to Spike in this interview. Let's not forget all the other terrible movies he's made...Chiraq...cough cough
haile 89 So you only give one example? Judge him on his latest work.
really? over one trash movie when the man HAS CLASSICS pshhhh gtfo
what about a miracle on st anna. That too was terrible. He's definitely made decent movies but recently he's also dropped the ball. I think Inside Men was the last and only movie that went over $100 million in revenue.
Do the right thing, the Hurricane, Mo' better blues, Malcolm X, 4 little girls, Clockers...
all great movies. which makes it all the more surprising that he made Chiraq and a miracle on st anna. he's not a bad director but the way these actors were constantly praising him as if he was on Quentin Tarantino level was too much.
Spike Lee is capable of making good movies, but he´salways whining about racism in his movies. Gets old real quick
BLOODY ANGER . TRUMP " I HAVE NEVER MET DAVID DUKE " . PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN 2016 .
Spike Lee really isn't much f great director. And quite frankly, there are way better women directors totally pushed to side in this race for equality...
What a joke of a movie. Almost as bad as those conservative propaganda movies by people like dinesh d'souza.
Gross.
Go listen to David Duke on Tommy Sotomayor and find out the truth for yourself.
You sound like a fool
Movie sucked. Shouldn't even be considered a movie.
Dirg Ramsey lmao because it doesn't work with your racist beliefs?
Please elaborate...
You are literally the only negative comment that I've ever seen about the movie.
Why is this? Please explain, because I've heard nothing but great things. It's a movie based on true events that tells a story not only about the event, but also about the horrors of racism. So yes, please tell me why this is the worst movie you've ever seen.😐
