Swagger: Are We Free? (2023)
Episode 5, Season 2
The American incarceration system is a disgrace
23 July 2023 - 5 out of 6 users found this review helpful.
True, authentic and deeply moving. Exposes how "inner city youth" is constantly living a moment away from a disaster. In a civilized country, vulnerable young people should receive support from the government, not violent threats, abuse and slave like conditions. The performance of John Carlos adds weight, and the statistics he quotes are heartbreaking.
The three intertwining storylines, the Swagger team looking at possible jail time, the players already inside, and a new bunch of kids arriving at the jail, makes a strong multilayered narrative, exposing the inhumanity of a system that effects the whole black community.

Deeply moving and satisfactory on all levels. Transcends genre and time.
