Lifelong friends Daveed Diggs and Rafael Casal co-wrote and star in this timely and wildly entertaining story about the intersection of race and class set against the backdrop of a rapidly gentrifying Oakland.

I liked their approach to the story better than The Hate U Give. I think it tells a better story about trauma and the kind of neighborhoods where these stories are commonplace. Good performance by Daveed Diggs but Rafael Casal really stole the show.

This movie was a wild ride. The tension can cut deep, but it does it smoothly and clean. It has a lot to say, and Daveed + Rafael say it brilliantly. Won't be for everyone, but that's okay. Not everything is made for everyone, but either way it doesn't take away that it was still a brilliant movie. Acting was top notch, comedy was on point, and it was real as hell, even if you don't come from where they do, or live in it somewhere else.

You won't find any movie other than 8 mile or Blindspoting rapping or some kind of Poetry. Miles and Colin one black and one white from different backgrounds come together. Colin, black man questions why his friend Miles, white didn't help him when he was dealing with police brutality and it's because of his "White Privilege" which they later address. The movie may offend the listener in some way so hang onto your seat!
