CHAPTER

The Challenges of Black Officers in the Military

Davenport is such a well wrought character and like the perfect catalyst to kind of come along and start challenging a lot. The conclusion that I arrived at on my own is that this is a really challenging movie for I think white people to probably watch. So I don't so I would imagine that it's cultural legacy in white spaces especially on you know the with the the TV the TV network system has been run and operated for the last 40 years has probably not given this film a lot of air time. Which I think is a real shame. It challenges a lot of concept a lot of white conceptions of basically how like the different forms that white supremacy can take.
