Passin' It On offers a raw glimpse into the life of Dhoruba Bin Wahad, a pivotal figure in the Black Panther Party, who spent nearly two decades behind bars due to a flawed conviction. The documentary's pacing is contemplative, allowing viewers to absorb the weight of injustice and the heavy toll it takes on individuals and families. The atmosphere is thick with tension, revealing the broader social implications of his case. There's no flashy production; instead, it relies on interviews and archival footage, creating a stark and impactful narrative. Richard Moore's performance as Dhoruba is compelling—it's like watching a man navigate the aftermath of a life taken from him. Themes of resilience and the fight against systemic oppression resonate throughout, making it a thought-provoking piece for those interested in activism and civil rights.
