Ep 21 - Nickel Boys (A hard but important watch)

In this episode, we discuss The Nickel Boys, the powerful adaptation of Colson Whitehead’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, directed by RaMell Ross. The film dives into heavy themes of systemic racism and injustice in the 60s, told through a unique first-person perspective that sets it apart. We talk about how this perspective adds depth to the storytelling and what it reveals about the characters’ experiences. It’s a hard watch, but one that feels incredibly important.
