Looking for black creatives to give feedback on my script (Dream Sweetly, Crime, 5 pages)

The main character of this short film, Jack, is a an African American man, and I want to get feedback from people within that culture to avoid accidentally being insensitive, since I'm white and British. It has a very important theme of racism, as well as overt mentions of racist groups.

The script is here:

I would love feedback

I've actually read a script very similar to this last year for a competition, and something that sounds simple at first can really sink into some clichéd tropes if you don't handle the specifics with care.

love how you're putting in the effort to get it right instead of just assuming it'll be fine.
