robert moses...designed a big chunk of nyc & theres alot of racial aspects; oliver stone was gonna make a film but i think it fell through

tommy 'karate' pitera....mob hitman...he was bullied as a kid for having a high pitch voice, went to japan & learned karate, returned to his old neighborhood & was a psychotic hitman, almost like a serial killer.

dikk cheney...bush's first term was basically his presidency...halliburton paid him like $40 mill to step down as ceo when he became vice president...it would focus on all that behind the scenes stuff.

gordon parks....important photographer & directed shaft

alan moore...went from working in a slaughterhouse to becoming successful with comic books
