The film does an excellent job of revisiting the Michael Brown case. It does so by untangling the two competing narratives that were told at the time. To be sure, the film concludes that Michael Brown was murdered in cold blood and that the Ferguson Police chose to cover it up to cover their own assess rather than to own up to what happened. It also ties this outcome to the broader history of racism and poor police relations with the black community in the south. But that doesn't mean it's biased. It just tells a strong and compelling story. It unveils devastating lies in the Police narrative of what happened that day. It is a story that should jar you to your core if you are not a racist and if you actually believe in and love this country. Don't let the bigots trying to lower the films ratings here deter you. They would be better served spending their time trying to answer the devastating critiques this film adroitly delivers.

A must watch. Anybody that says different is clearly not truthful. Too much evidence ignored. Too many spins by the "authorities". The cover up is twice as bad as the killing.

One of the more ridiculous points made in the film was by Patrick Green, Mayor of Normandy, Missouri, which is a neighboring town to Ferguson. I'm not exactly sure why he's a part of this, but whatever. He claims that for police to have released the surveillance video of Michael Brown committing robbery at a local convenience store and roughing up the clerk just before the shooting was somehow an attempt to show the world that Brown wasn't really a good person. He goes on to say that to defame or demoralize someone in that way is the oldest trick in the book. I gathered by his statement then, that it wasn't Michael Brown's own actions, because I guess he's not responsible for them, but it was that evil surveillance video that painted him in a negative light. After all, he was a "good person". It was that evil video, which made him look bad, and it should never have been released!!!There's plenty of references made about slavery and about racially charged incidents that occurred over 100 years ago. It may be worth noting that I don't believe anyone remotely associated with the Michael Brown incident was anywhere near 100 years old. They even make the claim that the Daviess County Sheriff's Department badge was designed to look exactly like a Plantation Police Badge worn by the Runaway Slave Patrol in South Carolina back in 1858. The only thing this "slavery badge" has in common with The Daviess County badge is there's a star in the center of it. Other than that, the "slavery badge" looks more like a coin than a badge. The Daviess County bade looks just like any Sheriff's Department badge I've ever seen. So, I'm not sure if the inference is that ALL law enforcement badges are derived from the slave trade and are evil, or if it's just the Daviess county badge that is unique, which it clearly isn't. After that point is drilled home they actually make the claim that the concept of Community Policing is a concept carried over from the Plantation Patrols back during slavery. Community Policing is nothing more than white cops patrolling black neighborhoods to stop and harass innocent black folks for no good reason. I guess the point here is white cops are instinctively predisposed to be slavery cops! This is the point I literally started becoming nauseous. The thought that anyone would watch this one-sided, racially charged propaganda and accept it as an investigative documentary is disturbing.

Ludicrous documentary failing on every level of facts. Propaganda film
