*** Unforgivable Blackness - The Rise and Fall of Jack Johnson playing NOW!! ***
This is a great movie with Jack Johnson (VIII), Keith David, Samul L. Jackson, Adam Arkin, Philip Bosco
Basically it’s about:
From the celebrated director of Academy Award-nominated “Brooklyn Bridge” and “Statu of Liberty,” UNFORGIVABLE BLACKNESS: THE RISE AND FALL OF JACK JOHNSON follows Jack Johnson’s remarkable journey from his humble beginnings in Galveston, Texas, as the son of former slaves, into the brutal world of professional boxing, where, in turn-of-the century Jim Crow America, the heavyweight champion was an exclusively “white title.” Despite the odds, Johnson was able to batter his way up through the professional ranks, and in 1908 he became the first African-American to earn the title Heavyweight Champion of the World.
Unforgivable Blackness - The Rise and Fall of Jack Johnson is awesome. I’ve probably seen it 20 times, and I never get tired of it. Have you seen it? If you click the image above you can learn how you can watch it now, or any time.
