Daryl Davis, Race, & America
Accidental Courtesy
Review by Ross Anthony

What a beautiful message this rough-around-the-edges documentary carries! Yes, the lenses need cleaning, and yes many of the shots are taken from a moving car – but Daryl's courage, intelligence, and optimism flows the entire duration. And of course, who wouldn't be interested in listening in on a conversation between a black man and a KKK member (or leader no-less!)? These discussions are fascinating (sometimes tense), but always fascinating. It also helps that Daryl can rock the piano like nobody's business. Not sure I like the title though.
