James Earl Jones is always enjoyable and convincing in his roles, this did not disappoint. He plays a pastor with a doctorate degree in the middle of the civil rights movement. Parts of this made me so angry at people for the way they treated the blacks and the prejudice that still goes on today, even if it's nowhere near what it used to be. This was good with a surprising twist at the end.

A touching story of oppressed Black people before the civil rights movement in Alabama. they did a good job of showing how black people were in sitting in the palm of white supremacy being crushed by the overwhelming fingers of extreme racism through verbal, physical, mental and social abuse that was at the time legal. I liked how the comparison to rabbits was made. saying that when a white man hunts a rabbit out of season he is finned. but when a white man kills a nigger he gets to go home scott free... saying that the worth of black people was less that rabbits. . the film has a way of showing the violence without showing the violence, with showing the pains without showing the pains, showing the rapes without showing the rapes, showing the discomfort without actually allowing the viewers see it. well put together and well acted out. the only reason i deducted points was for technical reasons.

TV quality movie with a compelling story. Do some background research on Vernon Johns...he was a brilliant man, and completely unappreciated.

Excellent movie about a courageous man who stood up to racial bigotry and helped start the civil rights movement. He put his life on the line and stood by his beliefs but he's been overshadowed by the achievements of leaders like Martin Luther King. A must-see movie!
