SYNOPSIS

IMPACT-Dick Gregory is an intimate, real time conversation between Dick and actor/activist Jane Fonda, actor Clarke Peters and director Ernest Dickerson. Jordan Stone’s original concept was to share the quality time he spent with Dick and explore topics rarely discussed openly and see how America has been shaped and affected by history especially as Dick asks, “…why did the universe pick me to change things…”

He also quoted Robert Kennedy in the 1960s saying that in 30 years from now there could be a black president…
