Started to watch this and the folks refer to black folks as "toad". I never heard this term and I guess I don't get where it came from.

Prion term, eh. Oh that reminds me in the TV show "Kitchen Confidential" while visiting a rival chef. Bradley Coopers character had his hand glued to the phone as the rival chef was leaving he said "hog it down" what does that mean?

As for the movie, not bad. Being directed by Spike Lee. I suppose one can't fudge too much being a true story. But he did put his slant at the end trying to tie in Trump as the white devil.
