2020 not only impacted humanity with the coronavirus pandemic, without a doubt, it was also a heartbreaking year in terms of social and economic issues.
It should be remembered that thousands of people around the world joined the fight of the anti-racist movement Black Lives Matter, after the murder of the African American George Floyd at the hands of the police.
The Floyd incident confirmed the systemic brutality with which the US justice system operates, which tends to show more viciousness and violation of human rights against the accused who belong to the so-called “minorities”.
The voices of celebrities demanding equality and justice in this context were not lacking at that time, and for this reason, Will Smith and Pedro Pascal are working on a documentary series to emphasize the importance of social struggle.
The material will follow Smith (African American) and Pascal (Latino) on their journey to delve into the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution, which is supposed to defend without distinction all people born or raised in the USA. .
On social media, Will showed his enthusiasm for the project:
“Our hope with this series is to illuminate the beauty that is America’s promise… to share a message of connection and humanity so that we can better understand our different experiences as Americans. We will promote the true equality promised »
The material will be named Amend: The Fight for America and it will hit Netflix sometime in 2021.
Meanwhile, Pedro Pascal is still consolidated as the great star of The Mandalorian, but gave his own opinion after assuring that his real identity was “incomplete”:
“I do not feel Chilean or American (…) it is a feeling that can be applied to the concept that the docuserie seeks to portray … always under the question: who is the United States?”
