Dear Mama

You have to love 2pac work ethic, his loyalty. He was wise as a teenager way beyond his years. The show gave us alotta pictures and clips we have seen before but had a little more spotlight on them. You have to love the background on the Black Panther party. The director was able to interview a decent amount of original black panther members for this documentary. The show also gives us tupac involvement in the party how he almost became a leader of the youth new party before the entertainment business swooped in at the last minute to claim him up, I am only 2 episodes in because that's all that's available so far on Hulu but so far so good.

I'm still processing so many emotions... gratitude for afeni and tupac, their transparency, their dedication to improving the lives of black people... the love that made them both stand out as activists and artists and leaders in the black community... their legacy lives on.

This doc did a great job honoring their life stories, and didn't shy away from commenting on the complexities and contradictions (love, rage, violence, care, loneliness, community) that marked tupac and afeni's lives.

This was a beautiful, powerful documentary. You can't know or love tupac without knowing or loving afeni. I spent most eps wishing i could see more footage of afeni speaking onscreen but the last few scenes were a very pleasant surprise.

This is one of the best 2pac documentaries I've earaches and I have pretty much watched watched all of them. They really show different interviews that I haven't seen before. It goes back to really show who 2pac was growing up and his family life. I still say no other rapper can make you feel a song the way 2pac made you feel a song. The Hughes brothers show great detail in the stories and interviews they share , from each family interview they show. This documentary really goes and talk to people never that have had in depth interview before , I didn't know his mom's background and her life story. Hopefully this will win an award, because it deserves one.

This docuseries is outstanding. It really traces the political activism and beauty/power of 2Pac's music and activism to his mother and Black Panther roots. There is some controversy about Allen Hughes making the docuseries but Hughes does an outstanding job. Frankly, it is SO DAMN unfortunate that 2Pac was not in Menace 2 Society. Wish 2pac was still alive. There will never be another Rap artist with as much integrity, dignity, intelligence, courage, and love for Black, disenfranchised and underprivileged people. That's why 2Pac is loved everywhere around the world. Do yourself a massive favor and watch this docuseries. Watch it twice.

Allen Hughes does an excellent job showing the greatest of all time and the mother that made him. Seeing Afeni, one can understand why Tupac was the way he was.

I'd consider myself a huge fan that's heard and seen almost all there is to see Tupac. But this show has a lot of unreleased footage, and seeing how Hughes puts it all together is masterful. He's done a great job and done their legacies proud. I know a fair bit about Afeni but learnt a lot more in this show.

Sad and emotional in parts, but that's just their story. Story that has it all. Ups and down.

A great tribute to Afeni and Tupac.
