When They See Us (Central Park Five)

222

i love to watch documentaries.  so when this one came out, i made the time to sit back, focus, and watch it without any interruptions.  i was totally shocked because i didn’t know about this story.   it’s called “When They See Us” and it’s about 5 black teenagers that got falsely accused for raping a white girl.  it’s very hard to watch without getting mad at our own government. it’s hard to watch wondering what these kids had to go through.  and it’s hard to watch how screwed up our justice system is.  they eventually all got exonerated and set free, but i’m sure some scars will last forever.  it makes me think how many more innocent people are sitting in jail today.  very sad documentary, but very real too.  please take the time to watch it because we can all learn from it.  just in a day, you’re life could be taken away from your own government.  so scary…

Here is the trailer:
