User Reviews

A Real Life Experience

This was a view of Oakaland, CA. as a day in the life.

This was not your everyday move, no matter what the title stands for. This was a story being brought to life from the view of the streets. The writer has written a story that is like breathing, staying in pace with what is real, what is life. There is detail, background, and timing that makes all the difference in Everyday Black Man. The visuals don't give you a false sense of a dirty community, but real life streets in Oakland. She has caught the feel, respect, & disrespect that is given and taken everyday.

Everyday Black Man is a touch of survival, caught in the movies.
