Bob Marley Transforms from Showman to Shaman in Netflix’s ReMastered “Who Shot the Sheriff?”
The premiere: To say that watching Who Shot the Sheriff? was an education is a serious understatement. Not only did I get a vital history lesson on the internal and external political forces that shaped Jamaica in the 1960s and 1970s and what caused the disenfranchisement and oppression of so...
