Even for someone like me who thinks of Hugh Hefner as the epitome of cliche of the dirty old man, I did appreciate how he played an important role in racial and sexual politics, but just because a person can be groundbreaking in one area, they can be negative in another, and Hugh Hefner: Playboy, Activist and Rebel does not ignore that aspect of his life. Hefner even unintentionally damns himself just by being himself.
