He was acquitted of all charges by a Jury of his NON-peers (which is a very rare case for a black man). And I must/will respect that, period. This movie was incredible, powerful & extremely sad. I wouldn't take anyone under the age of 18 to see it. But it'll definitely have you thinking about what our ancestors had to go thru. It's truly sad what happen in this country for over 250+ years. Terrifying tbh...
