About this Event
"America Under Fire” The film is about three highly successful insurance attorneys who went into the practice just to make a lot of money. It surprised a lot of their friends and schoolmates because of their smarts. In college, they would win debates and mock trials about black oppression, police brutality, White privilege, and racism. While watching TV, Talking, and planning a trip they witness the senseless killing of a woman at the hands of the police. It was not just the killing that disturbs them it happened to be an old school mate they use to tease and pick on and how she was disrespected before they killed her. Jeffrey X sat there looking at the video like it was a family member being killed (stoned faced), Larry Wright sat there with a look of disbelief, and you could see a tear run down Carla Simms cheek. This took them back to their old college days when they witnessed the beating of a college classmate. On this night, a reality check gave them a visit. A reality that they have been running from for years. The next morning, they closed their business. Turning their attention to bringing America in front of the World Court for allowing states and itself to participate in the violence and the oppressed conditions Black America has endured since they hit these shores. Their argument, America has broken its law by letting states constantly violating the 5th and 14th Amendments when it comes to the security and well-being of the Black American.
