Heatwave

The movie was great but at the same time it was sad. It showed how colored people were always abused because of their race and were always seen as less. They were already tired of everything that was going on and there was a moment they got tired of this situation that they decided to riot and stop this situation that was going on. Journalist Bob Richardson was always told to say the truth, "not the black men's truth, not the white men's truth, but the truth" That is exactly what he did, he was able to get in where all the chaos was happening and was able to get valuable information. Something I learned is that no matter what is going on, a journalist should always be neutral in a situation. I also learned that as a journalist, some people might be risking their lives in some situations. Finally something else I learned is that you have to be persistent if you want something to be done your way.
