Black Male Opinion on "Strike the Movie"

Polemic Peoples

Instantly viewers latched on, shared and resonated with the short-film and as well as what Tiffany was trying to achieve with the movement as a whole.

Others described the Strike as triggering and offensive. Activist, Khalil Rodriguez, was among this opposition. I got the opportunity to have a sit down with both Tiffany and Khalil for some morning tea. We discussed the different ways the film and it's messaging was perceived to us in order to come to a collective understanding. However, the conclusion we came to turn out to be much deeper.

Generally we talked about how there is a connection between black men who ghost in romantic relationships and black men who go absent in parental relationships. Listen to the full sit down here on another episode of Polemic Peoples.
