Is it fair to say that an ode to Spike is the same as an ode to Chuck D, to Malcolm, to MLK...

James Baldwin, Frederick Douglas, many many others that would fit the point my question is asking? He’s made some amazing movies. With blockbuster results and mechanics, and with clear points and possibly conscious intentions. 2 years after Do the Right Thing, Rodney King got beat on camera and then a year after that the riots (not just LA, but mainly LA) happened. Today, we’re in the middle of a presidency that didn’t condemn nazis/white supremacists and he released Blackkklansman... a very powerful film.

Is he, Mr Lee, somewhat and fundamentally synonymous with those mentioned above?
