My father always told me, "Fighting with someone standing in your way is time taken away from your intent. Step around him and go about your business." I've always taken that to heart. Haters waste your time as well as theirs.

I'm African American. I was trying to buy an office building and I asked for a commercial loan at a bank. They never replied to my request, although I went to their office, provided them the business plan for the building. A few months later, another bank approved me for a commercial loan. As I was trying to close, the bank that refused me the loan signed a 5 year lease for a space in the building I was purchasing. The negotiations started with the previous owner's leasing agent. But, I had to provide the approvals, as it was during the due diligence period, as I was taking over the building. Once the bank heard that a new owner of the building was about to take over, they send one of their sales agent to meet the future buyer (me), trying to offer me the commercial loan they refused me a few months earlier. I spoked to the salesperson, but declined their loan. A few months later, they were the tenant in my building ...

It also shows how much of a difference a good person can make in a certain outcome. Matt's decision to contact Bernard ahead of the Senate hearing made the difference that allowed for a kind of positive ending despite the setback in Bernard's plans. If Matt was a different type of person that backstabs at the earliest sign of trouble, the situation could have been different. We all face decisions in life and sometimes it tests our moral character. Even in the face of difficulty, choosing to do the right thing is always available.

There is a story similar to this from India. Jamshedji Tata was inspired to build a hotel after he was refused entry at one of the grandest hotels of British time - Watson’s Hotel - which was restricted to ‘whites only. Jamsetji Tata took this as an insult to all Indians and then decided that he would build a hotel where not only Indians but foreigners could also stay without any restrictions. And that's how India's first super-luxury hotel, Taj Mahal Palace, came into being.

This same man and his family has built up TATA group that's over $300 billion today.

This same thing happened to a South Carolina real-estate investor 2 years ago. The police handcuffed him and held him for 3 hours. He owned the properties, got roughed up, sued and won $300, 000. Smh, this still exists TODAY!

Never seen a channel recap a movie so empathetically while preaching the moral of the story at the same time and touching the subject of racism with so much sensitivity. New fan👋🏾

One of the good things of this movie is that it's based on a real story, So Bernard, Joe and Matt really existed. It's inspiring seeing their actions, specially Bernard, on overcoming obstacles like those. Excellent movie

They cant own the air we breath 🎉 cheers for the successful black people in businesses

[TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

This is an eye opening movie with a beautiful story. With a great attitude and a smart mind, you can overcome any obstacle. Even when the whole world is against you.

Wisdom is one thing i truly admire from the main character in this story. Wisdom is what makes a human at higher place than others. Although he faces the real problem -- aka racism -- but he still can think rationally with carefully counted steps. I admire this movie just like The Butler and Hidden Figures. Wisdom can be found everywhere -- no matter what colours a person has. God bless them all 🤩👍🏻 i stand for all high quality personalities these persons have. Salute 😎❤️

Just to see how much discrimination people have gone through is really hard to see and overwhelmingly crazy that someone can still be so kind and patient through his approach to such disrespectful people

[giftlukomano]

This is so encouraging, it has really lifted up my spirit 🙏👏👏 may you continue to speak in people's lives, thanks alot for your life changing true stories

[treysowavvy]

Anthony Mackie is literally carrying black movie star roles, sad that it took a couple avengers movies for him to really shine

This was a great movie. My grandfather(my dad's dad) was in WWII. He left the army and tried to get a VA loan and then a conventional bank loan to start a refrigeration business. Got turned down both times. My grandparents saved up $200 to start the business themselves. My grandfather got contracts for commercial refrigeration because of his last name. And a few folks thought he was just the foreman/lead guy and not the owner. It helped that my grandfather had a white sounding name. My grandmother said he would say 'if I do a great job, my color won't matter.' He was successful in spite of seemingly insurmountable obstacles in his(their, my grandmother helped) way. Seemingly we are better but until this kind of thinking is eradicated, the promise of this country will never be realized.

I read the title and was SO happy that this man did what he did. I'm ashamed of people for discriminating against him. You go Bernard! God bless you!

This is an example of a TRUE STORY in the UCLA community. A Young Basketball Player named initially LOU ALCINDOR. Later named Kareem Abdul Jabbar. There was an investigation of housing discrimination near the campus. A Landlord told a couple of African American students the "apartment they were interested in had been RENTED. Later that day a white couple came to see about the apt. and was told it was available. To make a long story short KAREEM bought the building and FIRED THE MANAGER.

It's incredibly stupid to hate someone just because they look a certain way. I judge people by their actions. I'm a Sci-Fi fan, it's great at teaching you, that someone can look very different from you, and still be very good, and honorable, someone you can have a great deal of respect for.

The 50's wasn't long ago. Most of our grandparents lived through this timeperiod...

This gotta be one of the most inspirational movies ever made. The story is amazing. Overcoming obstacles; I remember my brother told me, "With great risk comes great rewards."

Was glad to see in the end Matt didn't betray them, made what happened seem not as bad. Though it would have been nice if a new investigation could have started once the system was less corrupt with racism and they got some kind of justice
