The latest work from filmmaker Raoul Peck (I Am Not Your Negro, 2016), Silver Dollar Road follows the story of the Reels family who are valiantly attempting to protect the land their family bought one generation after slavery. This documentary, based on the 2019 ProPublica article, highlights the covert ways the legal system has been exploited to keep Black land ownership fragile and the racial wealth gap growing.
