Standing in A Class All His Own, Spike Lee Continues to Educate By Any Means Necessary

Academy Award-winning filmmaker Spike Lee has been schooling moviegoers since he entered the industry in 1983. The time has come for the tenured NYU professor's work to be more widely considered in education, specifically at the collegiate level, starting with Do the Right Thing.

This month I shared my thoughts with Visible Magazine about the necessity of casting a wider net in the classroom to raise awareness and introduce pivotal lessons about race and racial injustices. Check out the article here: visiblemagazine.com/spike-lees-do-the-right-thing-should-be-mandatory-in-higher-ed/
​
​In 2010, I interviewed the late Bill Nunn, a Morehouse College grad like Lee, who portrayed the unforgettable character Radio Raheem in the film.

“Let me tell you the story of Right Hand, Left Hand. It’s a tale of good and evil. Hate: It was with this hand that Cane iced his brother. Love: These five fingers, they go straight to the soul of man. The right hand: The hand of love. The story of life is this: Static. One hand is always fighting the other hand, and the left hand is kicking much ass. I mean, it looks like the right hand, Love, is finished. But hold on, stop the presses. The right hand is coming back. Yeah, he got the left hand on the ropes, now, that’s right. Yeah, boom. It’s a devastating right and Hate is hurt. He’s down. Ooh! Ooh! Left-Hand, Hate, KOed by Love."    Radio Raheem

    DocM.A.C.'s  Musings

    I am Dr. Margena A. Christian aka DocM.A.C. Some folks feel my way with words, so I thought I would drop a few random "soul lessons" with a little bit of this and a whole lot of that. Keep the faith and always trust the process.
