Screening Do Not Resist, 90 min., by Filmmaker Craig Atkinson
• Premiere Date: Feb. 12, 2018
Q&A with Hamid Khan from Stop LAPD Spying Coalition
Synopsis
A vital and influential exploration of the rapid militarization of the police in the United States. Do Not Resist puts viewers in the center of the action — from inside a police training seminar that teaches the importance of “righteous violence” to the floor of a congressional hearing on the proliferation of military equipment in small-town police departments. Winner, Best Documentary Feature Award, 2016 Tribeca Film Festival.
