Hollywood films on racism

Spike Lee has long made films critical of racist structures in the US. Pictured here is a still from his upcoming new film, “Da 5 Bloods.” Lee had his directorial debut in the mid-1980s. Through films like his 1989 comedy-drama “Do the Right Thing,” he became known for taking up serious topics, like inequality, with a touch of levity. “Da 5 Bloods” tells the story of four black Vietnam vets.
