1988
On the hottest day in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Mookie, a pizza delivery man, observes escalating racial tensions between Black residents and Sal, the Italian-American owner of Sal's Famous Pizzeria. A neighborhood activist, Buggin' Out, demands Sal display Black celebrities on his 'Wall of Fame,' but Sal's refusal, fueled by his son Pino's racism, intensifies the conflict. As night falls, a confrontation at the pizzeria between Sal, Buggin' Out, and Radio Raheem, who constantly plays Public Enemy, erupts into a violent brawl. Police fatally choke Radio Raheem, prompting Mookie to incite a riot by destroying Sal's window, leading to the pizzeria's destruction and leaving the community's future uncertain.
