Set on the hottest day of the summer in Brooklyn’s Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood, Spike Lee’s Do the Right Thing examines escalating racial tensions among residents of a diverse community. The story centers on Mookie, a pizza delivery worker at a local Italian-owned pizzeria, as simmering conflicts erupt into confrontation. A dispute over representation on the restaurant’s “Wall of Fame” becomes a flashpoint for deeper systemic issues. The film builds toward a powerful and tragic climax, offering a complex meditation on racism, anger, and responsibility.
