Description

WORLD PREMIERE A valuable history lesson and a propulsive narrative, this follow-up to Henry Hampton’s legendary series examines America’s recent history since the election of Barack Obama. DOC NYC will premiere the final episode in the six-part series, which focuses  on the creation of the Black Lives Matter movement and the disparate people and organizations in Florida, Illinois, and across the country who came together to fight for racial justice. - Murtada Elfadl

The first screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Asako Gladsjo, and executive producer Dawn Porter.


All in-person screening venues provide sound amplification headphones upon request with venue management. IFC Center can also provide a T-Coil loop for compatible devices.
