Academy Award nominated documentary, "Street Fight", follows the bloody-knuckles race for mayor of Newark, N.J. between 32-year-old Cory Booker and four-term incumbent, Sharpe James. An urban David and Goliath story, the film chronicles the young man's struggle against the city's entrenched political machine, which routinely uses strong-arm tactics to hold onto power. The battle sheds light on important questions about democracy, power, poverty and race. When the mayor accuses the Ivy League-educated challenger of not being "really black," the campaign forces voters to examine how we define race in America. Directed by Marshall Curry.

A man who could have had an easy life of wealth, and instead he chose one of the worst jobs to do. Cory Booker is amazing, and this is who we should teach our young people to be like.

This was a very disturbing movie. Sharpe James was a monster; a hateful, misogynistic, and dishonest person, who tapped angry and uneducated people. He behaved like such a horrible person in public that you wonder why people couldn't see his worst traits.
you're an idiot. (a) if you hate america why are you watching videos on an american website; (b) this movie is amazing, as is evidenced by it's awards; and (c) this film depicts an aspect of democracy that's often overlooked, how the hell is that "shit"?

It shows you how blind loyalty can ruin people.
