13th

"13th" is a thought-provoking documentary that examines the criminalization of African Americans and the U.S. prison boom. Featuring scholars, activists, and politicians, the film explores the history of racial inequality in the United States, from the end of slavery to the present day. Through candid interviews and powerful footage, "13th" sheds light on the economic and political systems that have perpetuated racial control and forced labor, and reveals how the war on drugs has led to mass incarceration and devastating consequences for minority communities. With a keen eye for detail and a deep commitment to justice, director Ava DuVernay exposes the truth behind the U.S. prison system and challenges viewers to confront the harsh realities of systemic racism.
