Watched Shirley. Initially, I was hesitant that it might be boring as I don't understand American politics much. But, the message they intended to give with it so nice that the complete movie was worth watching. Also, good adaptation based on real events. Didn't know anything about this and was amazed to know the history here. Movies if done rightly are a very good way to display history.
Sidenote would be they mention black panthers, and there is another movie for that on Netflix I guess. Which is equally good.

Bang-on!
Learning about history from movies is always a fab idea

I have learned more history from watching movies than I did in school 🫣

Whenever someone mentions the Black Panthers, I always get reminded that Tupac Shakur's parents were prominent members of the party. Always found it cool.
So cool, actually*
