FEATURING DÉBORA SOUZA SILVA AND REV. WANDA JOHNSON - A new documentary, released by Ava DuVernay’s ARRAY ahead of the 4th anniversary of the police murder of George Floyd, highlights how Black mothers cope with the most unimaginable loss of their lives. 

The film For Our Children, by award winning Brazilian documentarian Débora Souza Silva, centers Rev. Wanda Johnson, the mother of Oscar Grant. Johnson acts as a mentor to other women like her whose sons and daughters have been beaten, brutalized, and murdered by police and explores a movement of mothers determined to prevent others’ children from being victimized by the same system.
