   Is 'the 24th' a good movie?

   Is the 24th a 'Jayhawker' movie?

   • Fascinatingly, “The 24th” also borrows several of the tropes of “Jayhawkers”—namely, that of the Black man who uses his esteem within white society to work on behalf of the rights of Black people, and of the sympathetic white figure whose authority can be dissolved at a moment’s notice by higher-ups. (Byers acts in the earlier film, too.)
