This New Netflix Documentary Shines a Bright and Shocking Spotlight on Modern Racism

If you couldn't get enough of Netflix's chilling docuseries Making a Murderer, chances are you'll be just as interested in their latest prison documentary. The new original film is called 13TH, and it's produced by Ava DuVernay, who also produced 2014's Selma. 13TH refers to the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, which states, "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States." The documentary drops Oct. 7, but for now, you can watch the trailer above to see how the amendment served as a catalyst for the horrors of the modern American prison industry and all of the corruption that lies therein.
