This film was beautifully written, shot and acted. HUGE KUDOS to the AMAZING cast, crew and producers for bringing Chairman Fred Hampton's story to life... will definitely spread the word that this is a MUST SEE!!!
Wow Dedra. Long time no see. Send my love to Rob and Sandy...take care
Powerful. The history of struggle for black people in America has so many chapters. Thank you for this part of the story. Great movie.
I truly appreciate the care, truth, and willingness to share this story highlighting the collusion against Black efforts to resist racism.
Mr. King well respected all around
This film is Oscar Worthy!
BEST HISTORICAL PRESENTATION OF ANY FILM I HAVE SEEN IN A LONG TIME. AND YES, I’M SHOUTING!!!
I love Shaka King’s work. I’ve kept Newlyweeds in rotation for the past 5-6 years. I’ve been patiently waiting for more. So pleased to see his art on the screen again.
Great film 🎥 ! Thanks for bringing a new perspective to this historical storyline!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Incredible film and cast... and that haunting soundtrack!
"a badge is scarier than a gun"
An incredible film, depicted and directed wonderfully. I loved it so much. Soundtrack amazing...
Glad you enjoyed it!
COINTEL PRO. Till this day 2021
Right on ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾💯💯💯💯💯To the PEOPLE
❤🖤💚 Simply Beautiful ❤🖤💚 ... been watching the film over and over.
FANTASTIC! You deserve ALLL the awards.
Jus saw this brilliant movie definitely adding to my home collection!!! Awesome job Brother King & Brother Daniel!!!
just watched, thank you for sharing this early access screening such a POWERFUL FILM!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Congratulations @Shaka King!!
Very powerful film. Thank you for telling the story. Congratulations on such superb work.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Shaka King/Charles King and the Wondeful Versatile Actors did an Amazing job. I would like to point out that Dominique (Judy Harmon) Thorne was that Soldier that Every Movement needs. She was fearless, Compassionate and she handled her weapon better than some men. Please add her to the interviews...
The film was absolutely incredible!!!
LIVE... BREATHE THREW THIS GREATNESS... JUST DON'T PRAISE IT AND TALK BRIEF ABOUT IT'S TRUE HISTORY. IT'S NOT AMERICAN/ AMERIKKKA HISTORY. POWER ✊🏿✊🏽✊🏿✊🏿 TO THE PEOPLE
I have asked Shaka to finance my trip to Uganda, him along with me. No response as of yet. I still wait.
U didn't spoil it. We r watching 4 the journey & display.
Fantastic Film 🎥
We agree!
Great interview. But putting Fred Hampton and Barack Obama in the same sentence is a huge insult to Fred Hampton and suggests you really didn't get Chairman Fred's politics. Even if you never studied Hampton and the BPP, it was right there in the first scene when Fred is critical of putting Black names and faces on things to pacify Black people.
Great questions..unlike those minstrels on the breakfast club that insists on spoiling the movie!!!
Thank You.
I'm just glad that it's OUT. COVID19 has screwed up SO much, so I'm glad it will out 4 people 2 see. It looks gr8!
A truly gripping & well done film. @Macro as an industry professional, I would like to get in contact with you about future projects!
The *first all 'blk' film making group* to possibly get an Oscar? That...is..just...sad. And speaks volumes as to how far this country has *NOT* stepped out of *ITS* comfort zone. Congratulations gentlemen: even if you do not with the statuette you will make a mark within the historical narrative non the less.

congratulations on the success, brother. major come up
can you send me a copy pdf?
GREAT MOVIE, talk to them about doing " black wall street movie" we need to hear and see that too..AMERICA ANY CHANGES ( 2Pac voice)🤔🤔
It’s a great film.
Since there is information that you couldnt put in the movie due to time etc, think about creating a study guide or booklet to guide students and others.
Was hoping there’d of been more focus on the amazing work that the black panthers actually did, think that was a missed opportunity
At first glance at movie title i thought it was a new Killah Priest album smmfh
I wish Bob Lee before he passed blessed the set as well. Bob Lee was a very important peace to the Chicago chapter as far as recruiting and was very instrumental in helping form the rainbow coalition. He worked very closely with chairman Fred, but I get it, everything can't be put in a two hour film. And Please don't put Barack Obama and fred hampton in the same category.
I'm sorry Daniel looks nothing like chairman Fred, but congrats to the brothers and thank you for at least bringing this icon to a new audience hoping people will research further.
