Black History Month 2020, Sky History

History's about what's happening. The past shapes the present. For this year's Black History Month, I honed in on the connection between contemporary institutional racism and historic racial oppression. White supremacy has constructed societies founded on Othering and polarization. Through archive, interview and original footage, Sky History's feature docs investigate this issue specifically in America. Racial injustice is nonetheless endemic to Nation-states globally. As far as a video can, this promo is designed to raise awareness and bolster positive change.
