This Month’s Feature Film: “When Justice Isn’t Just”
Directed by Oscar-nominee David Massey, this dynamic documentary explores why so many unarmed people of color have been shot and killed by police officers. Police officers, legal experts, local activists all weigh in in this timely documentary, delving into ongoing charges of inequality, unfair practices, and politicized manipulations of America’s judicial system. Massey, an NAACP Image Award Winner, also addresses so-called “Black on Black” violent crime.
As the Black Lives Matter movement – and citizens nationwide – question the accountability of our justice system in cases of police violence, When Justice Isn’t Just is an essential and balanced addition to the ongoing discussion about violence, reform and renewal.
