Adapting the actress, playwright, professor and activist's powerful work, the HBO Films presentation focuses on the lack of opportunity and resources for young people living in poverty, which often leads them into the criminal justice system. Smith fearlessly brings to life the stories of 18 real-life people in the one-woman show, among them current and former inmates, protestors, educators and politicians. Shining a light on a lost generation of American youth,

If you want respect, show respect

I was disturbed by the use of the term "paddy wagon" throughout the film, particularly in the recounting of Freddie Gray's ordeal. This term is very derogatory to people of Irish descent and should not be used EVER. I think the actor thought it meant the police vehicle was "padded." A very ignorant assumption. Do your homework and show some respect for other cultures!

Incredible acting

If this actor doesn't receive many awards next season, I might take to staging a protest in the streets.

Does it matter that the data completely refutes Smiths claims?

In fact the data show stronger policing, and longer sentences for criminals, results in more opportunity, and more class mobility for people in violent and impoverished urban neighborhoods. The data also confirm that crime, with minority victims, INCREASES with any reduction in policing and arrest/imprisonment rates of criminals from those neighborhoods.

As far as Freddy Gray, this film was made before all the police were acquitted of the ridiculous charges -- and acquitted by juries that were mostly African American.

Very Problematic

This is nothing more than the cynical attempt of a D-list actress to profit from various social issues. If it wasn't a one person show I would take it seriously, and might even believe that the intentions behind it were sincere, but as it is I think this was done to bolster Anna Deavere Smith's brand rather than out of a genuine desire to affect a positive change, or to bring awareness to issues.There are SO MANY talented artists who could have made a meaningful contribution through this as well, that it honestly reeks of narcissistic self-indulgence on the part of Smith to perform it solo.
