The George Floyd Aftermath: Speaking to Black Lives Matter Filmmakers About Political Protest and Bad Cops


On Friday afternoon, I spoke with both Peter Nicks (the director of The Force) and Smriti Mundhra (the co-director of St. Louis Superman), who have made documentaries about our Black Lives Matter era. In the wake of George Floyd's killing by Minneapolis police, I was curious to get their insights about police reform and the power of social protest. They had a lot to say. I hope you find this illuminating.
