The moviestarring Delroy Lindo, Clarke Peters, Norm Lewis, and Isiah Whitlock, Jr., and Jonathan Majorspremieres on Netflix on June 12.
The United States Armed Forces came close to being torn apart when black soldiers heard that Dr. King was assassinated, Lee told Vanity Fair in a recent interview. They also heard that their brothers and sisters were tearing shit up in over 100 cities across America. The tipping point came very close; the black soldiers were getting ready to set it off in Vietnamand not against the Vietcong either.
