Rubble Kings is a 2015 documentary film directed by Shan Nicholson that depicts gang violence in The Bronx in the 1970s, specifically the events leading up to and following the Hoe Avenue peace meeting.

[1] One of the film's producers, actor Jim Carrey, stated the following during a Q&A session after the film's premiere: The first time I saw the footage, I was completely blown away by this incredible thing that had happened, that no one knows about.

A great movement towards peace, about really courageous people overcoming seemingly impossible odds and rising to love.

Although I didn't grow up in that situation, I can understand that idea, and I think it's important that we all reach outside our own realms of experience and try to understand what people are going through and the things they have to overcome.

[4] Daniel M. Gold of The New York Times described the film as "a fascinating, valuable work of social, music and New York history, a celebration of a peaceful revolution by those who helped birth it.
