One TikToker who claimed to have attended several of the spring break festivals during its 90s heyday captured the prevailing mood among her peers. “I dunno, y’all,” she sighed, “we might be in trouble.” There was a genuine fear that rewinding the tape from that time could eviscerate the Black bourgeoisie, embarrassing scores of career professionals and public figures if the unearthed footage didn’t outright end their careers. A judge and politician were among five women who sued to stop the documentary from airing.P Frank Williams, the director on the project, could relate. “Not to say people overreacted,” he says. “But the whole ‘people getting up in arms’ was a little bit funny and a little bit crazy at the same time.
