    Skewed ratings

    Great film. Have nothing to add that other reviewers have not already said. The low overall rating for this film just proves the whole premise of what Jeff is trying to say. Racism still lives in this country.

    Sad to see all of the 1 stars, the truth must hurt...

    This is a beautifully put together documentary. So heartbreaking to hear from the family members of the victims of police murders. It's also heartbreaking that so many of our fellow Americans have such an agenda to deny the many forms of racism that exist today. I hope we can all move forward with humanity as the goal instead of denying others experiences.

    An excellent documentary

    A very well put together documentary that does as the title says. It's an honest look at the history in the United States... I wish my high school textbooks had been this honest and thorough.

    Who controls the past, controls the future.

    Don't stay busy not hearing

    It has a 5.7 rating at this time, I don't get that! This was almost all new information to me, I'm glad I watched it. There are 1,000 stories under the sun, but it seems that too many of us are busy not listening to this story. Just listening, just hearing. I found his style of presentation and speaking easy to take.. about a bunch of things I didn't want to know. So that's a great job in my book.

    What We Aren't Taught Can Hurt Us

    This film should be essential viewing.

    Jeffery Robinson tells a compelling and truthful history of structural racism in America, not to place blame or shame but to inform and educate,

    If you don't think we have problem with racism in this country, or that racism no longer exists, I urge you to watch the film.

    We cannot deny our history, or that many of us lived through the civil rights era and witnessed the racism and brutality brought against civil rights activists in the Jim Crow South.

    It's a brilliant, heartbreaking and joyous film. We are at a tipping point, and we do have a great chance to make real progress if we can only come to terms with our past.
