TOMATOMETER

New York Times
3.5 stars out of 4 -- [T]he truly amazing thing about Gregory's story was that he didn't just keep breaking down barriers and becoming richer and more famous. He became legendary for having convictions and acting on them...
RogerEbert.com

Product Description:
In the 1960s, Black entertainer Dick Gregory stood on the front lines of the civil rights movement, relying on his natural outspokenness to draw attention to the struggles of minorities in America. Over the decades, Gregory charmed audiences with his acerbic wit and intelligence, inspiring generations of Black comedians, from Dave Chappelle to Chris Rock and Kevin Hart, to take to the stage of standup comedy while lending a critical voice to Black America. Written and directed by Andre Gaines.
