The Real State of Emergency, 11:24, 2006
by Elliott McGregor
Elliott McGregor, a young east Oakland teen, was inspired to make a movie on the violence that goes on in his community. This movie was made for those who live the life out on the streets to take a deeper look at Oakland's State Of Emergency and explore the root of the problem.
I have to say this is one hell of a movie. Great interviews and the way the movie was pieced together is what makes it so good. It gives up the insight on why this is going to be one of the worst years ever. The homocide rate is just skyrocketing and many of the victims are just so young. My friend’s little brother just got killed a couple of weeks ago and it was just so hard to realize that he was only 16. We need to, and you already are doing your job by making this movie, unite and fight to try and minimize the violence that is going on in Oakland. This my friend is really the “State of Emergency.”
