Before we discuss this film, we need to preface it with a reminder first: racism has, and still, exists.

Something the Lord Made is a chronicle of a medical genius’s uncredited efforts as a victim of racism. Prepare for a taste of anger, anguish, and betrayal in this movie, which future historians might one day believe as a stunning sample of 20th century social climate.
