Watch Films and TV Shows About Racism and Police Brutality

I watched the documentary called 13th (2016) on Netflix. This film is about mass incarceration in the US, particularly of black people. Overall, I though it was informative, interesting, thought-provoking, and, especially towards the end, heart-breaking. I only wish they would've spoken more about what types of crimes black people are most commonly being arrested for (violent, non-violent, drug-related, etc.) to get a fuller picture of the situation. But in spite of that, I think this is an enlightening film that everyone should take a look at if they have the chance.

Another great...

Watched a documentary that made me realize just how sad the state of things are in the USA. While I'm not American it should enable me to have more empathy with American online friends who deal with racism in their daily lives.

Not sure how this helps the world, but I was a couch potato whole watching a movie admit racial injustice.

Watched Marshall starring Chadwick Boseman.

My Book Club chose "The Street" by Ann Petry to read this month. I listened to the audio version. Still powerful, nearly 75 years after its publication.

We are also committed to reading non-fiction about racism.

I have watched movies and shows in the past that talk about racial injustice and every time it does not fail to show me how we need to start speaking up for all the injustices happening around the world.

In the wake of videotaped incidents of racism and police brutality, ... there are plenty of thought-provoking TV shows and documentaries that can help. ... As the film shows, police initially said the shooting was justified,

Eye opening.

I watched the movie Jackie Robinson and it was about Fighting for equal rights

We learned so much as a family!
