BOBC: Ep09: Do The Right Thing

In 1989 Spike Lee decided to take on racial unease in Bed-Sty Brooklyn, New York. Easily Lee's must known film, Do The Right Thing, is an in-your-face look at the boiling tension between the races in the heart of the hood. With a backdrop of a brutally hot summer day we watch as Mookie (Spike Lee) sways between his loyalties to his boss and his loyalties to his neighborhood.
