Misleading, Criminalizing, Misses the Larger Picture

This film is one-sided and a disservice to the community.

Wow, just wow.... very misleading.

Zero Estellas. From the interviews with the police in this Doc, it's made out like they're compassionate, sympathetic, helpful, basically as the motto they claim.

I don't know? I couldn't finish it, it made me very angry seeing everyone in Watts portrayed as either a drug addict/ dealer, gang member, prostitute, or homeless, from the view of the LEO's interviewed. It seems very much like a promotional Doc. Anyway, I didn't like it, it made me feel icky. Zero Estellas.

Thank you for highlighting what some of the positives that are coming out of the community! Kudos to those children for being so resilient! Thank you for the officer who helped to create the partnership with such an amazing community organization.

Very well produced documentary that focuses on a program that mentors middle school age kids from the worst neighborhoodsn in Watts. Very inspiring look at the positive work being done by the police and the community.

Must watch for anyone passionate about Social Justice, community activism, and mentoring at-risk youth.

Don't miss it.
