00:00 Ferguson Race Riots

This documentary caught the mood a year after the death of Michael Brown, the unarmed black teenager killed by a policeman in Ferguson, Missouri.

Reggie Yates examines the position of African-Americans in US society. Michael Brown’s death, in addition to other incidents of police brutality, shocked the world and led to sustained rioting in Ferguson. Reggie visits the small town in America’s Bible Belt and discovers that the death of Michael Brown has politicised a new generation of young activists. He seeks to find out from the citizens of Ferguson whether the community can ever be healed. Reggie looks at new police recruits being trained but goes on to discover how African-Americans are still being discriminated against.

54:08 Life and Death Chicago

Reggie examines the impact that gun violence and police brutality continue to have on the citizens of Chicago.Against the backdrop of unprecedented gun violence, Reggie Yates travels to Chicago to investigate gun crime in President Obama’s adopted hometown. In the year of filming this documentary, there were 468 murders in 2015. With many of the victims being young African-American men, who was to blame?

Reggie hears first-hand the accusations of police brutality, but after attending the aftermath of a shooting and funeral of a young black man, he comes to realise an even bigger problem is that the majority of killings are perpetrated by young black men living in Chicago’s poorest neighbourhoods.
