I saw this movie at Tribeca last year and people loved it. I loved it. It follows real kids who are using hip-hop to grow as people, to find themselves, and to do something positive for others. It's exciting to watch these kids overcoming serious obstacles, working hard and fighting to do what they love. By the end they've grown into themselves as people and some of them have grown into really impressive artists.
This movie is about people who are reaching out beyond their own problems and dealing with them at the same time in order to make a difference in other people's lives. Every American should see it. And everyone who lives in a community that's influenced by hip-hop should see it too, which means pretty much everyone on Earth should see it. Including white IMDb users who've formed a negative opinion of hip-hop, have racist feelings about black people, and think it's OK to give "1" votes to movies they haven't seen.
Which brings us to this: as of May 21, thirty-nine (39) people, out of 119, have given this movie a "1" vote. There are no comments explaining why this movie deserves a "1." The only conclusion to draw is that this outstanding movie has been the victim of anti-black vote-stacking from people who've not seen it.
