Eye opening !
Love this film! It takes you to a time where you get to peek into what life was like for white and black people. It shocks me to see the white folk so oblivious to the mistreatment of another human especially when most these ladies just wanted a job to feed their children families. This film shows how one person can change the course of history through persistence, bravery and the coersive ability to show others there is a willingness and need to change. The characters are genuine and the lessons they shared with the children and families are timeless...id reccomend this movie 110%

If you haven't heard of Kurt Vile yet, you are missing out. His sound more or less defines modern lo-fi folk rock, and his live shows are a staple of music festivals around the world: you might hear him (with support from The Violators) at the Take Root Festival this October in Groningen, Netherlands, or Dublin, or Brooklyn, this November. It's a roots band backing this bardic guru of young seekers everywhere.
Some interesting guitar lines through a vocoder, lyrics which feel half sung and half spoken, and a sense that this is the sound of something different, something creative; it's water in this desert of sameness that our pop landscape has become. And there is this feeling that the music here is just a bit raw, very human, and unadorned; it's not exactly alt-folk, it's not exactly anything, it's Kurt Vile.
