Chadwick Boseman left us way too early. He's a talent that will truly be missed. With his final live-action performance in Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, Boseman channels one of his best performances to date along side an equally impressive Viola Davis. Davis plays "the mother of blues", Ma Rainey, as she creates her single "Black Bottom". Black Bottom welcomes the conversation of exploitation, history of race records, what it means to sacrifice for your art and much more. How does this final performance from Boseman stack up amongst his others for you? Tweet to us and let us know. 1,2 you know what to do...
