Good to Go(1986)

Good to Go is a 1986 crime drama following a cynical journalist who uncovers corruption after police mislead him about a rape and murder linked to a Washington, D.C. Go-Go club. What begins as a routine investigation into a single crime evolves into an exposé of the venue's deeply entrenched racism and the systemic failures that enabled it. The film examines how institutional prejudice operates within both law enforcement and the music industry, using the Go-Go scene as a lens to explore racial inequality in the nation's capital. Driven by his determination to expose the truth, the protagonist navigates a web of deception and institutional resistance. Good to Go captures the tension between journalistic integrity and the forces working to suppress uncomfortable truths about discrimination.
