This show is awesome. It's about life in America its truth. "Some" people can't except who they really are and don't want to believe there are cops who shoot because of color.The world still has racism and "Some" can expect who they are and "Some" can't not because there frauds and dishonest. I pray this shows continues to warm hearts and open minds to those who want change and believe in change. I see the comments and the most disgusting ones are the ones who probably sit home and say n-word or say that's what they get. Which is so unfair most of the comments seem like hatred or don't believe in change. But I do so I will continue to watch this show and pray for those of weak minds and hatred hearts. ONE LOVE ONE LIFE ONE CREATOR 🙏 ✊✊✌
