Film BLOOD DONE SIGN MY NAME is an excellent illustration to the «Great Book» about racism and social injustice. Jeb Stuart's picture is founded on the known book of the professor of Afro-American researches Timothy Tyson. In the centre of attention of the film there is an event which has strongly increased a racial gap - the cruel murder which has happened in 1970 in Oxford, N.C. Henry Marrow, the black veteran of war in Vietnam, has been ruthlessly killed. His murderers - the white man and two his sons - have been let off by the court consisting of the white. They have been released, despite the fact that it happened in the presence of the public! A resentment and injustice have expelled on streets many young Afro-Americans who have taken part in acts of vandalism and revolts. However Marrow’s cousin, Ben Chavis (Nate Parker, a leading roles in The Great Debaters and in coming Tuskegee Airmen saga by George Lucas), has decided that the best result will be not from aggression, and from peaceful demonstration near the government building. But the small group of the indignant relatives and friends on this demonstration has united thousand people for the short period of time...
