ADJUST YOUR COLOR: THE STORY OF PETEY GREENE



I will be brief in my commentary. Petey Fuckin Greene. This guy just blew me away. I didn't see the movie "Talk To Me" starring Don Cheadle, and I'm glad I didn't. In a age where many African-Americans are afraid to be truthful and display parrhesia, Petey told it like it was/is. I always identify with the grassroots stories like this that always stay close to the people instead of chasing national attention. Cool fact: He died exactly one year before my birthday. You also see cameos by Donna Brazille and Howard Stern. Enjoy the docu. Especially the watermelon piece.
