Redemption, an FX Original Movie, is based on the true story of Stan "Tookie" Williams, co-founder of the infamous Crips street gang in Los Angeles. The film depicts how his time in jail inspired him to help inner-city youth by writing children's books, which in turn earned him three Nobel Prize nominations.

Jamie Foxx stars as Williams, with Lynn Whitfield co-starring as Barbara Becnel, the woman who befriended Williams and helped him secure a book deal to spread his word of peace. Rounding out the cast is CCH Pounder as Winnie Mandela, Brenden Jefferson as the young Stan Williams and Lee Thompson Young as Charles Becnel. ...

I saw clips of this the outher day.
It looks likes its going to be good.

I want Jamie to get out of those COONISH roles and star playing more serious parts.
