I recommend yall take a peek at this flick as it's well relevant in today's climate of race relations etc. Most movies of it's time tone back on the racial talking points (desegregation, harmony amongst blacks and whites) This movie goes a complete 180 as the antagonist (Shatner) plays his entire ass off as a bigot causing riots all over the small town. Basically showing the other side of the coin, ala a certain Orange faced goofy trying to spin the block on this country.Most people see Shatner as Kirk, but
acted his entire ass off despite this movie bombing in theaters (which sadly was the director's only flick that did terrible in theaters).
