American cinema has been gifted with two extraordinary documentaries this year that have done precisely that on the topic of race, examining how inequality leaks throughout the ages no matter what bill is signed promising fairness. Earlier we received the shattering masterpiece OJ: Made In America, a multi-part piece that took one man’s story and found the history of race relations within. Now Ava DuVernay has directed her own work, 13th, focusing on the titular amendment and a few words within that have allowed for over a century of slavery’s lingering effects. 13th lacks the totality of OJ, which is only a flaw because it raises so many fascinating angles within the limited time allotted: http://www.cutprintfilm.com/reviews/13th-review/
