It's nice to see that a guy like Clarence Thomas has got the courage to talk about his life in a way that it is not for a 1-star rating. I'm sure that a lot of people will agree with me that this documentary is very important. It shows that people can make a difference for others, without any violence, or anything like that. Thomas' courage is worth it, and it is a rare occasion to see a person who has a very good mind. He is a very interesting guy. All the things that he has achieved are great. He is one of the most famous people in the world. He is a great judge of other people, and a very good judge of his own abilities. Thomas is a very wise man, and it is nice to see him being a good judge of others. He always stays true to himself, and that is a great trait to have in a person. I hope that the people will learn from his example. Clarence Thomas is a very important figure in American history. He is a person who should be remembered, because he was a very important person in the history of America. This is a documentary that you should see, and I am sure that many people will learn something from it. I believe that it is a very good documentary.

Watching Clarence Thomas's first two terms in the Supreme Court, I found it impossible to take my eyes off him. This was an interesting collection of interviews from the 1980s, as Clarence Thomas was beginning to realize the error of his ways. The fact that this wasn't an official film is a testament to its effectiveness. Thomas's extraordinary talent is even more impressive when you consider the late 70s and early 80s, where he had the best chances of a Supreme Court nomination. The title is misleading, as Thomas was not "equal" with any of the justices on the bench. He was "equal" with Justice Potter Stewart, who, despite being a minority, managed to become the most famous justice. Thomas's rise was most likely due to the fact that Stewart was an average-looking, white male who made a lot of noise. One can only wonder what Thomas would have been like if he had been more closely related to Justice Potter Stewart. For example, the other justices would have looked like Justice William O. Douglas, who was almost a clone of Stewart. Another similarity is the fact that both Stewart and Thomas, like Justice Potter Stewart, were male. In fact, Thomas was the first Justice appointed by a black man (James Garfield) and Stewart was the first Justice appointed by a female (Clarence Thomas). In fact, Thomas was the first Chief Justice to be appointed by a man, when he was appointed by Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist (Fritz Von Lohmann). When you watch this, you'll see that Thomas was one of the best Chief Justices, and perhaps the greatest Chief Justice in American history.

This documentary is a must see for anyone who is a fan of Clarence Thomas. It shows his views on affirmative action, public service, and the judiciary. It also shows some of the damage he has done to the U.S. and the country. This is a very sad documentary and a must see for anyone who is a fan of Clarence Thomas.

The movie is based on the memoir of Clarence Thomas by a journalist named Daniel Bernstein. Thomas was the longest serving senator in U.S. history and he is a highly respected conservative jurist and legal personality. He has also been an outspoken opponent of abortion and has been a major advocate of same-sex marriage. I won't rehash the merits of his legal career or what he thinks about abortion, but the movie concentrates on his political career. He is most remembered for his actions during the hearings on the impeachment of Richard Nixon, and the role he played in the infamous "Saturday Night Massacre" (1972). Thomas was elected to the Senate for two terms (1977-1980), but in 1982 he announced his retirement. In his memoir Thomas describes how his career has become a boring and unrewarding experience. He writes that his political career has been a "mastermind" and he sees it as a "job". The movie concentrates on what he believes and why he believes it. I believe that his time in the Senate has been boring and uninteresting. I think that the media have portrayed him as a mean and dishonest politician and have cast him as a racist. Thomas claims that the media have portrayed him unfairly. He doesn't see the media as the enemy. He says he is an "old man" and the media are "young and inexperienced". He says that he has become "more and more cynical" about politics and he doesn't care what the media says about him. He is extremely critical of his fellow senators, but at the same time he says that he doesn't care if they are Republicans or Democrats. He even says that he hates his colleagues in the Senate and thinks that they are "bigots". When Thomas was in the Senate he was accused of racism because he had voted to impeach Richard Nixon and he voted for the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which he says was not an issue of race. He also voted for the Civil Rights Act of 1964, but not the Voting Rights Act. He says that he "did nothing" for the African-American community. The movie focuses on how he came to this conclusion, but it doesn't deal with the merits of the Senate and how he voted on the Watergate hearings. The movie is very interesting and worth watching.

I have to admit that this film is not for everyone, but it's one that I am glad to have seen. The issues are presented in an interesting way that doesn't rely on excessive drama. It also has a message that I can understand. Thomas is shown in a really interesting way, especially when he talks about his love for his children and his work. The scenes of Thomas in the Senate are also really great. One that I really enjoyed was when he talked about the history of slavery and how the abolition of slavery was not going to be easy. The speech about the bible and the Ten Commandments was also very important to me. The film also shows Thomas in a really realistic way, when he is dealing with his friends and his family. I really think that this is a very important film to watch.

How do you get around the hard realities of discrimination in a society where you are not equal? This documentary is worth a watch because it explores that question. I would recommend it to anyone who is aware of the discrimination in our society. Thomas is a brilliant actor, and he is an outspoken, outspoken, outspoken commentator on these issues. His interviews are sharp, and his comments are interesting. Some of his comments may be true and some may be not, but I enjoyed his questioning of the situation. I felt that the film did not dwell on the subject matter that much, which is great because it does not go into detail about the discrimination. The documentary is a good overview of the issue. The documentary is not political, but is really about Thomas's career, and it is definitely worth seeing.

I haven't been this impressed with a documentary in quite a long time. No spoilers here, I will just say this: It's the kind of documentary that people who have had a story happen to them will get, but will be willing to talk about it after watching it. I was on my own in my opinion when I first watched it. I didn't know the full story, and the kind of response that it got in the movie theater I was in. This documentary was the most emotional I've ever seen on film. It made me think about my life and about my own story. It's a great way to tell a story about someone and what happens to them. It also gave me a new respect for Clarence Thomas. This is one of those documentaries that you'll want to see again and again.

In his own words: Clarence Thomas has had a very difficult life. When he was diagnosed with the neurological disease that caused him to be unable to speak or walk, his life was never the same. This interview with Clarence Thomas gives insight into his illness and his recovery from it. In addition, we are given insight into the difficulties he faced after his release from prison. He also provides insight into his later life and how he dealt with the loss of his wife and the loss of his daughter. A very compelling interview with the legendary Clarence Thomas.

This is a great look at the life of the Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and his beliefs, and what he believes is more important than the people that elected him. Thomas grew up poor in an area of Chicago that had a high poverty rate. He said that his "poor" upbringing had shaped his views on social issues, especially the role of the courts in society. Thomas was also an outspoken and combative person. At the end of the film he describes the Supreme Court as a place where "you've got to stand up for what you believe, not just what the majority thinks." He felt that the Court was somewhat insulated from the other branches of government, so his views on social issues were not really heard. As a result, he says he was "thrown to the wolves." He views himself as the "last man standing" because "if the next President has a different agenda, I'm not going to be able to stop him." He also says he felt that the majority of people in the country were not as passionate about social issues as he was. Overall, he says that he wants to "represent the majority" and that is why he is a staunch conservative. This is a good look at a man that has been in the Supreme Court for more than a decade. If you are a fan of Clarence Thomas, you'll definitely enjoy this documentary. It's a great look at the man and his views. It's worth watching.
