    I remember reading an article on ‘Tookie’ and becoming fascinated by his story then I coped this film as soon as it was out there 100% a great movie.. Foxx was unreal in his role!
    In the end ‘Tookie’ got his served sentence but definitely achieved redemption with his behind bars achievements and trying how he can to educate the kids outside
    But in the end that cycle is always gonna be part of life over the pond in America bloods vs crips
    Bet them young guns don’t even know his name

    I've been raised under a relationship with God where even though vengenance is a natural human reaction it isn't the way we should react. A man murdered Brother Jjames Morgan of TNCC Church of God. His natural reaction was anger and he wanted his head. He grew past that over time to forgive the man but he wants nothing to do with him Its hard not to hate but considering what Tookie has done...and he still can tell me he didn't do it. I couldn't carrey that malice only confusion would cloud me.

    Tookie didn't created the crips the word crip was created by Raymond Washington tookie is the leader of the westside crips not the creator. Tookie was creator of how ruthless a crip should be tookie was what crippin means . That why crips act so rough tookie only inharded the lifestyle. I honor thks man because he turned his life around by telling kids jail ain't the life . God has forgiven tookie even tho he murdered ppl .

    Great act of redemption and educating himself.
    Give the man credit, he tried to right his wrongs and save children and the world from gang violence.
    Arnold Schwarzenegger could have granted him clemency, but he never apologized for the murders.
    Can't speak for the man but, if he wanted to live and he was truly remorseful, he would have said he was sorry.
    It was in God's hands regardless. I'm guessing he put it in God's hands as well. So did Governor Schwarzenegger!!!
    -End of story
    ⭐ EVERYTHING'S IN GOD'S HANDS ⭐
    In his decision denying clemency, issued less than 12 hours before Mr. Williams was scheduled to die by lethal injection, Mr. Schwarzenegger wrote that the case had been appealed to various courts since Mr. Williams was condemned in 1981, each one upholding his conviction.
    The governor described the four murders in chilling detail, included a long list of the evidence against Mr. Williams, and said the proof of his guilt was "strong and compelling."
    "Without an apology and atonement for these senseless and brutal killings," Mr. Schwarzenegger wrote, "there can be no redemption. In this case, the one thing that would be the clearest indication of complete remorse and full redemption is the one thing Williams will not do."
