Pass the Axe

New Bedford, MA - or, “The Whaling City,” is a quaint fishing town that is one of the most multicultural & diverse in the United States. With large Portuguese, Black, and several other various ethnic communities occupying the close knit neighborhoods, New Bedford would be the last place anyone would expect to witness a horrifically violent hate crime. Yet in 2006, that’s exactly what its residents would be forced to endure. 18-year-old Jacob Robida walked into a New Bedford gay bar armed with a pistol, knife, and a hatchet- tucked in his belt, under is black hooded sweatshirt. This is the tale of an anger-fueled loner, influenced by ideologies of homophobia, racism, and violent music. Written by Michael Dunphy Jr., Executive Produced by Michael Ojibway.
