Dear Mama (part 2)

He was a kid from the Bay Area with a difficult relationship with his mother. And while most kids could relate to that kind of situation, only one kid was the multitalented and charismatic son of Afeni Shakur, a controversial leader in the Black Panther Party.

Episode 2 of the documentary series “Dear Mama: The Saga of Afeni and Tupac Shakur” explores Tupac’s initial commercial success and controversy.
