Heatwave

Heatwave is an amazing movie where it really made me feel as if I was there during the event. It really opened my eyes to what the African-Americans went through as well as the white people. it came to my understanding where during those times, there was an extreme amount of discrimination as well as misunderstanding. What really stood out for me was that Bob Richardson had the guts to stand in the middle of the riots and interview the feelings of the African American people. Not only does he have the guts to go to where the riots were at but he was representing the truth of the situation and the riots. It just pretty much gave me a lesson where in journalism you have to tell the bare truth, don't sugar-coat the stories, even if there is a chance to jeopardize your reputation or your job. It is Extremely important to tell the truth. This is what I found amazing about Richardson because he knew this One truth had to be told to everyone, it had to be revealed.
