My America by Rod Webber

(not suitable for children)

An erudite African American, whose wife was the victim of a hate-crime, reaches the end of his rope when confronted by bigot EJ Winston.

Laura Agnach, PHD (a criminology & sociology professor at Georgia Southern University) is planning to use this controversial film as part of her curriculum, saying, "My America provides an important sociological analysis of the current state of race relations in the U.S. and could be a valuable resource to those who teach about race in higher education."
