This event is considered one of the high points of the civil rights movement in the United States. Over 200,000 people gathered in front of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. and called for an end to racial discrimination in the USA. Martin Luther King gave his famous “I Have a Dream” speech at the event.

On approaching Kravitz for writing a song for the film, Wolfe said, “The one note I gave him was the song needed to help deliver us as an audience, from feeling to action. And trombones. I begged for trombones.” Wolfe became fascinated with trombones after filming Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom (2020), and Trombone Shorty was brought on board to contribute to the song.WEB, Tangcay, Jazz, August 17, 2023, Lenny Kravitz Writes and Records New Song ‘Road to Freedom’ for George C.

Bilge Ebiri from Vulture observed that the script was laden with “ham-handed stage-setting with lines” that equated to “classroom-exercise level writing”, leading to a film that was “filled with all the clichÃ©s of the genre.” He also elaborates that the film’s “predictable plot points” and the “pro forma” nature of Rustin’s “personal affairs” in conjunction with Wolfe’s “methodical direction” led to “visual inertia”.WEB, Ebiri, Bilge, November 17, 2023, Rustin Is a Solid History Lesson But Not a Particularly Good Movie,www.vulture.com/article/movie-review-netflixs-rustin-starring-colman-domingo.html, live,web.archive.org/web/20240108003734/https://www.vulture.com/article/movie-review-netflixs-rustin-starring-colman-domingo.html, January 8, 2024, February 1, 2024, Vulture (website), Vulture, RogerEbert.com{{’}}s Robert Daniels similarly agreed that the film suffocated Domingo and suppressed his potential, noting that he “ultimately clings to these emotional crescendos, gripping for dear life to a film that rarely, if ever, rises to his level.“WEB, Daniels, Robert, September 14, 2023, TIFF 2023: Rustin, Sing Sing,www.rogerebert.com/festivals/tiff-2023-rustin-sing-sing, live,web.archive.org/web/20231208185838/https://www.rogerebert.com/festivals/tiff-2023-rustin-sing-sing, December 8, 2023, February 1, 2024, RogerEbert.com, In his review, Michael O’Sullivan of The Washington Post found the film’s “perfunctory plot” to be “as montage-y and as superficial as the film’s opening reenactments” and criticized the lack of character development across the supporting cast, noting “none of them stands out as a three-dimensional character”.NEWS, O’Sullivan, Michael, November 1, 2023, ‘Rustin’: Bland biopic about a man, a march and a movement,www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/movies/2023/11/01/rustin-movie-review/, live,web.archive.org/web/20231103074250/https://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/movies/2023/11/01/rustin-movie-review/, November 3, 2023, February 1, 2024, The Washington Post, Specific criticism was further directed towards the film’s approach of Rustin’s sexuality as a narrative. Dustin Guastela of Jacobin criticized the film for caricaturing Rustin’s political views: ”Rustin claims the civil rights hero has been forgotten because of his sexuality. But it was his fiery and provocative class politics that makes him both controversial and prophetic today.” He argues that the film’s lack of development in the relationship between Rustin and Tom Kahn “weaponized” Rustin’s sexuality as a means to obscure that Rustin’s “historical neglect” was also due, in part, to his political views, which were “no less a reason for his official erasure from canonical civil rights history.“WEB, Guastela, Dustin, December 1, 2023, Rustin the Liberal Biopic Versus Rustin the Labor Activist,jacobin.com/2023/12/bayard-rustin-biopic-liberalism-antiracism-civil-rights-movement-labor-class-politics, live,web.archive.org/web/20231209034403/https://jacobin.com/2023/12/bayard-rustin-biopic-liberalism-antiracism-civil-rights-movement-labor-class-politics/, December 9, 2023, December 2, 2023, Jacobin, In his review for IndieWire, David Ehrlich also lamented the film’s handling of Rustin’s sexuality and stated that ”Rustin is diminished by the forced momentum of its plotting, by how inelegantly the script incorporates the social dynamics of Rustin’s homosexuality (the love triangle that develops between Rustin, fellow activist Tom Kahn, and a composite character played by Johnny Ramey stops the movie dead in its tracks every time it comes up).“WEB, Ehrlich, David, September 3, 2023, ‘Rustin’ Review: Colman Domingo Shines in Staid but Excitingly Stage-like Biopic About Unsung Civil Rights Hero,www.indiewire.com/criticism/movies/rustin-review-colman-domingo-netflix-1234902192/, live,web.archive.org/web/20240106162055/https://www.indiewire.com/criticism/movies/rustin-review-colman-domingo-netflix-1234902192/, January 6, 2024, February 1, 2024, IndieWire,
