American Blackout

Storyline

  Chronicles the recurring patterns of disenfranchisement witnessed  from 2000 to 2004 while following the story of Georgia Congresswoman  Cynthia McKinney, who not only took an active role in investigating  these election debacles but also found herself in the middle of one  after publicly questioning the Bush Administration about the 9-11  terrorist attacks. Some call Cynthia McKinney a civil rights leader  among the ranks of Shirley Chisholm and Malcolm X. Others call her a  conspiracy theorist and a 'looney.' American Blackout gains  unprecedented access to one of the most controversial and dangerous  politicians in America and examines the contemporary tactics used to  control our democratic process and silence political dissent. The film  features interviews with: US Congressional Representatives, John Lewis,  Cynthia McKinney, John Conyers, Bernie Sanders, and Stephanie  Tubbs-Jones; former US Civil Rights Commissioner & Dean of UC  Berkeley's School of Law
