A White People Playlist of Movies to Better Understand Why Black Lives Matter.

#BlackLivesMatter. I don’t profess to be an authority on racial problems and solutions, but these three films will open your eyes and spark thought and discussion. Please watch in order, if you can.

“13th” is a documentary linking slavery, the 13th Amendment and our current prison-industrial complex. This will offer context for everything else you see.

“To Kill A Mockingbird” will tell you how long this shit has been going on.

“Fruitvale Station” is the true story of Oscar Grant, killed by a cop. Ryan Coogler’s pre “Black Panther” powerful film.

Here is a great interview with Producer and 1st AD Marc Kelly from 2018 about “Blindspotting” and we talk race.

Thank you,

Jordan
