The movie also aims to inspire the public to be advocates for change, and champions for justice in line with a popular quote from Martin Luther King Jr. contained in a letter he wrote while in the Birmingham Jail. “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.”
