BlacKkKlansman (2018)

Young black man joins the police force in Colorado. On a whim, he calls up the local chapter of the KKK to inquire about joining, without thinking about the impossibility of moving forward. Soon, he's made a connection and now needs someone to be the white face for his phone identity.

Although I’m impressed with Lee’s commitment to forcing audiences to see the similarities between the racism of the ‘70s and our current MAGA America, I’m not positive it’s the kind of choice that makes a film endure. I’d also really like to know just how much of the movie is true, because it is wild.
