    I'm Not Crying, You're Crying

    Count the ways I loved this film - it gave me language (Mirrors vs Windows) to see things for the first time through the lens of Black boys and men - loved how this wasn't just setting me up to re-see the harsh images I've seen over and over again on the news but really helped me understand the issue and feel hopeful that this cycle of oppressive behavior needn't continue. So much love - super important film to bridge communities - imho.

    Wonderful and Touching

    I could not but wow when I saw this documentary, I will have a watch, rewatch and recommend the documentary for the future. Highly recommended.

    Great Summary for the Daily Life of the Black Community

    Simply a great presentation of what's happening in the Black Community in USA. The film was diverse and showed statements from boys who are just growing up to teenagers to adults to educators to businessmen to writers to people of fame until senior people telling different stories but yet they all meet at the same point of pain! It is truly a story that needs to reach out to the whole world!

    Powerful documentary

    Very poignant and moving film. The message to celebrate and empower Black boys is one that so important right now.
