This episode of Pic.Think: TV brings you Sy, Sammie & Gladys' review of FX's American Crime Story: The People v OJ Simpson. In the first segment of this discussion we kickstart by considering whether or not we would've defended or prosecuted OJ, if we were ever in a position to work for either the Dream Team or The People. In the second segment we progress to discuss whether we consider this to be an accurate, unbiased dramatisation of the infamous OJ trial and whether the depiction of Marcia Clarke is an accurate depiction of female struggle in male-dominated society. In the third segment we examine the black dichotomy conveyed through the characters of Johnnie Cochran, who fights against systemic racism, and Chris Darden, who fights against domestic abuse. After this, we consider whether OJ's infamous statement, "I'm not black - I'm OJ", indicates a lack of black pride or simply a desire not to be bracketed or limited by race.
