Tommy Walker and Ross Hockrow’s documentary tries to make sense of the aftermath of and reactions to Colin Kaepernick’s protests.
Every few years, a certain segment of America remembers racism. The news jerks them out of a fabricated post-racial stupor and inspires a bundle of emotions: guilt, anxiety, fury. What they do with these feelings often becomes more the subject of headlines and analysis than the precipitating event.
It’s a curious cycle, one that Tommy Walker and Ross Hockrow try to make sense of in their elementary documentary. Their earnest efforts might turn off viewers already attuned to the cycles of America’s racial amnesia, but the doc works as a primer for the uninitiated.
