"Power" with Yance Ford Top Docs: Award-Winning Documentary Filmmakers
-
- Cine y TV
Yance Ford’s voice is key to his new documentary on Netflix, so here’s how he describes “Power”: “Driven to contain threats to social order, American policing has exploded in scope and scale over hundreds of years. Now it can be described by one word: ‘Power’”.
Yance’s narrative is deeply rooted in a historical analysis of the roots of American policing–Indian removal, slave patrol, the anti-Labor municipal police of the 18th and 19th centuries; in his analysis, all driven by the protection of property. But his focus ultimately resolves on the deeply personal effects that policing has on individuals and communities.
“Power” can now be streamed on Netflix.
