I think you will really like it! It is absolutely maddening in parts, seeing how so much has changed, but ... so many things haven't. There was one shot in particular, a tiny video clip of white boys protesting desegregation in Alabama (or Mississippi, or wherever) in the 1960s, and they were holding up signs with swastikas and "White Power" on them, and it's like, oh look, everything old is new again. I was so hugely impressed by Baldwin himself -- I'd never really seen any of his interviews, and he was such a thoughtful, intense speaker. Five stars! :D

I am envious of your snow! All we have had are ice pellets.
