Good documentary but

I really don't like it when we're presented bits of information about certain characters, leading up to "lies of omission" so to speak. Marcus Garvey is presented as a cult figure and nobody says nothing but good things about him. It should be noted, though, that Marcus Garvey was a self-proclaimed fascist, one of the few in America at the time, even more, he claimed he was the original fascist which was baloney, of course, since Mussolini was the father of fascism. Nevertheless, I feel like this was a bit of information that shouldn't have missed even though it damages a little of Garvey's reputation. Otherwise, the bits about Malcolm were accurate and I like that it showed that there were a lot of black people who weren't inspired by Luther King's peaceful ways.
