Hope & Fury: MLK, the Movement and the Media (2018)
A documentary following the civil rights movement and how the media, in particular the burgeoning TV, was used to fight for equality in the 1960s. From Selma to Charlottesville, we also see how modern activists use today's technology to continue fighting injustice today.
Directors: Rachel Dretzin, Phil Bertelsen.
