iReport —

Filmmaker Spike Lee was back in Atlanta recently for the 20th anniversary screening of his provocative film, "Do The Right Thing." I sat down and interviewed Lee on the patio at the W Midtown Hotel in Atlanta. He may appear to be very relax and that is because we have known each other for over 30 years back when we were students in the Atlanta University Center.

 

Spike directed two of Michael Jackson's music videos. He talked about how they met and also of attending Jackson's memorial service in Los Angeles. The rest of the interview will be posted on my YouTube page - SamNews76.
