*many people wanted to improve the Tucker-style but they also wanted to keep it as it was
*there were many life and death struggles where hip hop was occurring on the streets.
*i liked how they gave names of people who fought for hip hop being in the world and names of people who thought it was a problem for youngings and others on the street.
*i didn't like how the cops beat the guy with the broom, i know they have the right to bring him in for fighting but they didn't have to beat him like that.
*since there was a rape report when they saw this guy named Amadou Dialo and he was trying to pull out his wallet but anyways the cops fired 41 shots killing him with 19. Again an undercover cop asked a guy for drugs but the guy was trying to turn his life around so refused to tell him and then the cop shot him dead in the chest.
