Told by the activists and leaders who live and breathe this
movement for justice, Whose Streets? is an unflinching look at the Ferguson
uprising. When unarmed teenager Michael Brown is killed by police and left
lying in the street for hours, it marks a breaking point for the residents of
St. Louis, Missouri. Grief, long-standing racial tensions and renewed anger
bring residents together to hold vigil and protest this latest tragedy.
Empowered parents, artists, and teachers from around the country come together
as freedom fighters. As the national guard descends on Ferguson with military
grade weaponry, these young community members become the torchbearers of a new
resistance. Filmmakers Sabaah Folayan and Damon Davis know this story because
they are the story. Whose Streets? is a powerful battle cry from a generation fighting,
not for their civil rights, but for the right to live.
