The Black Power Mixtape empowered me and it showed me to many other black activist that advocated for equality other than The people thank mostly everybody are familiar of. Being black or white, freedom of speech and the way of life was displayed uniquely in this documentary. Back in the 1960s a white man saw themselves with greater value than the black man in America. Racism ruled at that time so people were treated unfairly and African American people had to fight hard to make change.
The Black Power Mixtape showed how people from other countries seen the true colors of America. The film portrayed white people a manner to unfilter the thing that has been going on at that time. It depicted that whit people used violence to solve their problems. While that was going on it showed the different peace protest that black people were doing at that time. There were many others that played a big part in the civil rights movement that didn’t get much recognition. Now in today’s society there is some similarities because history repeats itself and they are more people now that speak up for what’s right.
