I really enjoyed this documentary. I think they covered a broad spectrum of black americans and issues facing black americans. This story really hit home for me, growing up in a single parent household, dropping out of school, to moving from Philly to South Carolina and going back to school. I had to turn my life around with the help of my family. I like what Charles Barkley said on the show "at some point we have to draw a line in the sand". One day I decided that I wanted to change my life, that I wanted to succeed, and above all do the right thing. That was 14 years ago and I am now a graduate of the University of South Carolina, and currently a Systems Programmer at BlueCross BlueShield of SC. But this is not about celebrating my accomplishments. Nothing comes without hard work. We see images on Television of the finished product, but the work to get there is hardly ever known or shown, the overnight visits to the library on campus for the Lawyer, the computer lab for Engineer, the gym for the Pro athlete, or even the studio for the recording artist. I'll end with a quote: "The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing without work." - Emile Zola (1840-1902)
