Hollywood director Ava DuVernay’s entertainment company ARRAY is launching an initiative called the Law Enforcement Accountability Project, that will use art and artists to promote stories about police violence and publicize the names of police officers accused of misconduct.
“The stories around police abuse of black people who are unarmed and should not be killed is not being well-told when officers are able to just disappear into the ether,” DuVernay said in an interview with Reuters. “I can … rattle off 30 names of black people who have been murdered by police on film over the last five years, but I can’t tell you who killed them and I can’t tell you where those people are. I think that’s unacceptable.”

What about unarmed white people who were killed by police in recent years?
The guy shot in a hotel hallway?
The guy who had an officer kneel on his neck for 13 minutes while other officers made jokes about him being asleep and that it was time for school.
I can go on...
Those are my favorite movies! Like Lethal Weapon, Die Hard, Jackie Chan’s Police Story. Movies about cops and violence? Sign me up
Only black victims by white cops need apply... The rest of the black on black victims......Eh,no biggie...
Need to make white cops the most hated in all of the country....She forgets black population 13%...White population 69%.....
Annnd white liberals only hate cops until violence is in their yard..Then it’s I LOVE COPS....
This: “publicize the names of police officers accused of misconduct” is 100% about convicting by claim and accusation, before any hearing, trial, investigation. And that whole sort of effort is done to create “guilt” of the police in the public mind, no matter how that image does not fit all the facts.
That don’t count.
She also produced the fictional Netflix account of the Central Park Five, who were 100% guilty. It was as factual as any Leni Riefenstahl propaganda piece for Hitler.
But at least those rallies really did happen.
OK-That’s fine... then present stories about police who are doing a wonderful job...
Just say’n
.
Why not promote Stories about Black on Black Violence ... where the overwhelming number of real tragedies are.
Just another UnCaring Hollywood Whore
.
Ava DuVernay is a no-talent overrated hack.
Happens about every 12 hours in the US.
How about blacks murdered by blacks?
Happens about every 90 mins in the US.
This woman is a vicious and dangerous bigot. She’s going to get people killed.
She’s illiterate. Perhaps she should read a newspaper sometimes, listen to the news, or go online for this information.
I’d like her to form a group that lists and describes the innocent victims of black criminals/crime, including the 3 year old and 13 year old kids shot and killed in Chicago last weekend.
For leftist black cop-haters, this is not an option.
DuVernay said in an interview with Reuters. “I can … rattle off 30 names of black people who have been murdered by police on film over the last five years, but I can’t tell you who killed them and I can’t tell you where those people are. I think that’s unacceptable.”
Nine unarmed black men were killed by police in 2019. During the same time period over 7,000 black men were killed by other black men.
