The cop's irrational and prejudiced fear. He dehumanized African-Americans and used his bias as a terrible justification for cold-blooded murder.
Police are meant to protect and serve, not harass.
African-Americans are taught to not trust the police because they tend to harass and respond to us as threats when it's not…
Cookie would a ghetto stereotype in the hands of a lesser actress. So, ALL PROPS go to Taraji for giving the characters all types of emotional and psychological layers.

Their method of "fighting" seemed extremely deluded though. How does one fight the system by essentially conforming to it?
It hurt my heart to find out that Miss Levias was actually a white, Jewish woman in real life. Talk about ya re-casts… man!
I just googled "Yamp"

I'm STILL disappointed that Momma Mia X never blew up in the industry. Chick was a beast on the mic.Her guest verses on all the No Limit songs, the hits & misses, were always fire to me.
