Director Ava DuVernay launched an initiative to showcase police brutality through the activist lens
“We actually watched both parties’ faces perfectly framed. It was both men right in your face, right to the lens, one begging for his life and one taking his life,” DuVernay told Ellen DeGeneres. “It made me realize that we have let police officers who abuse off the hook by allowing them to recede into society and kind of disappear.”
DuVernay’s groundbreaking work has gained heightened relevance as a source of education for non-black people on the history of American racial discrimination in light of the Black Lives Matter movement. In April, Netflix made DuVernay’s 2016 documentary on the intersection of race and mass incarceration in the U.S.,on YouTube for teachers to show students during quarantine. However, since the death of Floyd sparked a new wave of digital activism against police violence two weeks ago, the Academy-Award nominated film has been trending on Netflix. DuVernay is also known for her 2014 historical drama, which looks at Martin Luther King Jr.
