Two stars deducted for all the mentions of God, prayer, church and other religious references having nothing to do with football. Would have been a much better movie without the proselytizing.

This series consists of six 30 minute segments that explore Colin Kaepernick's quest as a young man to become a college football quarterback. It doesn't dwell on the kneeling controversy which occurred later in his life, but focuses more on his character development throughout high school which was led by the professionalism of his coaches and love of his white adoptive parents. The series reveals that Kaepernick was dealing with blatant racism from conservative white AmeriKKKa long before he made it to the San Francisco 49ers.

I just can't tell you how important it is that as many people see this series as possible. It is one of the very best of its kind that I have ever seen. And don't pay any attention to the mediocre ratings you'll find on IMDB or the Netflix site. Before the show was even released on October 29th, all the conservative, racist haters of Kaepernick went on those sites and gave the it a bad review to discourage people from watching it.

I heard that this was an excellent movie, but then I read some of the highly critical reviews over on Netflix. So, I watched the movie myself to determine the truth. Let me give you a heads-up. All the negative reviews that appear as "serious" and "sincere" are written by George W. Bush administration apologists attempting to erase his failed, tarnished legacy. This movie is brilliant, not just for its production quality and performances of the highly renowned cast of professional actors, but most of all, for its historical accuracy. The Knight Ridder News Agency should forever be remembered for their heroic efforts to bring the truth to the American people during the Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld promotion of the illegal invasion and occupation of Iraq.
