I don't like scary movies but decided to watch it as an elderly white woman myself. I was expelled from the White society in 1965 for having black friends. I was publically shamed followed by shaming and complete separation from my mother father sisters Gramma uncles aunts everyone I grew up with. After 40 year's complete ostracization and becoming a mother of 4 beautiful Black children... where am I now ? alone facing an existence outside of my "birth races" . Little did I know then, now I'm old and remembering my life. I'm not impressed with anything that even appears as anti biased. Why create such a beautiful of so much pain. I don't know and this movie was utterly terrifying and the sooner I forget it the better. The love of my kids is even unsettling nightmare like the to terrifying judgement you see in this movie where the innocent are the enemy.

Tremendously moving especially after reading Brian Stevenson book. I can see white man's weaknesses and insecurities run amuck as in real life. It is not hidden from the viewing audience Framing and incarceration of Black men and women in America is a reality still going on today. But it is especially heartbreaking to see in the lives of the poor families who have nothing to offer to help rescue their loved ones.
