Entertainment Reviews:
WHOSE STREETS' still manages to end on a defiantly optimistic note, as a new generation prepares to take on the fight for political rights, social space and psychic wholeness...
Washington Post
[T]his slice of living history should have a long shelf life....[It] will fascinate and enlighten any future generations around to view it as a prime artifact of our freshly divisive racial moment.
Variety
This raw, powerful, street-level documentary is filled with such moments, important and telling vignettes that sting the soul and tear at your conscience.
Chicago Sun-Times
This is direct and frequently powerful filmmaking....The movie is punctuated with quotes by black historical figures...
New York Times
The documentary's impact is strongest in distressing footage of cops, military police and the National Guard in riot gear and armored vehicles, shooting rubber bullets and tear gas at protesters armed only with signs...
Hollywood Reporter
WHOSE STREETS' looks beyond the media narrative to offer what Davis has called 'black people seeing black people' -- validation, encouragement and love in the face of a bitter legacy of injustice.
Los Angeles Times
[W]ithout over-explaining anything, WHOSE STREETS' scores some tough points against the institutions its subjects consider to be the opposition.
A.V. Club
3.5 stars out of 4 -- A boots-on-the-ground portrait of the aftermath of Michael Brown Jr.'s murder and the sparks of a movement that sprang from it, this impressionistic collection of testimonies, frontline dispatches and citizen journalism could not feel more essential....Vital.
Rolling Stone
Product Description:
This chronicle of the Black Lives Matter civil-rights movement examines how it grew in the wake of the riots in Ferguson, MO, over the police shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown Jr. The documentary explores the stark contrast between the street protests and the media's coverage of the events, and touches on how new technologies like cell-phone videos and social media have changed public perception of police brutality against black Americans. Directed by Sabaah Folayan and Damon Davis.
