The true story of Fred Hampton was brought to life in the Golden Globe Award-winning film Judas and the Black Messiah. Now, a Democratic lawmaker is introducing a bill to rename the FBI headquarters in Washington D.C.
According to Complex.com, Rep. Steve Cohen of Tennessee said he will reintroduce a bill pushing for former FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover’s name to be removed from the building. Hoover was famously racist and for years targeted Black public figures from Billie Holiday to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to Fred Hampton.
Lee Isaac Chung, the writer and director behind the Golden Globe Award-winning film “Minari,” says the Christian character in the film was a real person and significant figure in his life who taught his family what it means to love others.
