Silver Dollar Road (PG)
★★★★ "Another Raoul Peck documentary triumph, the 'I Am Not Your Negro' director’s adaptation of a 2019 ProPublica investigation effectively connects one family’s story with the larger scourge of legal Black land theft." ~ The Guardian.
Based on the ProPublica article, Raoul Peck's documentary recounts the riveting narrative of the Reels family, led by the matriarch fondly known as “Mamie.”
Ever since the days following emancipation, the Reels family dedicated themselves to farming, fishing, and painstakingly forging a sustainable existence upon their expansive parcel of land nestled along the coastal reaches of North Carolina’s Silver Dollar Road.
Their unwavering stance led to their wrongful conviction for civil contempt in 2011, resulting in the harshest sentence ever issued for such an offense in North Carolina—eight long years behind bars. Finally released in 2019, Mamie, Melvin, and Licurtis continue their arduous struggle to reclaim the land that was unjustly ripped from their ancestral embrace
