I Was Born This Way

"I Was Born This Way" was an iconic anthem in the Carl Bean version. But this excellent documentary gave us the embodiment of compassion that Archbishop Carl Bean will always be. He (and his life story) was captured in a way that did not exploit his illness. Rather, we were blessed with the living legacy of how giving of oneself, unselfishly, starting with love and unity, using voice to give voice to the needs of the marginalized. Decades of genuine, unconditional love have a voice that impacts the world. The Rotacaster animation was phenomenal in illustrating the story and keeping the audience engaged in this genius medium to elevate the documentary, rather than only clips of video and no video from 40-50 years ago. Refreshing and priceless. Great job by the producers, directors, contributors, illustrators, and crew.
