The short documentary is a film production of The Future Left, created in partnership with People’s City Council LA in support of the global BLM movement.
The documentary is about the history and corruption of LA police unions, unveiling the enormous amount of power they hold and abuse they perpetuate. The Future Left collected interviews from BLM members and victims of police brutality, including the family of Daniel Hernandez who was killed by officer Toni McBride, as well as elected officials who have experience fighting in the system these unions control.
On April 22nd, Daniel Hernandez was killed by LAPD officer Toni McBride from the infamous Newton Community Police Division. Despite clear evidence of police brutality, this officer has not faced any charges due to their family connections within the Los Angeles police union. The LAPPL has purchased the political allegiance of the District Attorney and City Council through millions of dollars of donations, permitting LAPD’s systemic abuse of power to continue indefinitely. Now city leaders and activists are calling for elected officials to refuse and return LAPPL money and divest from the police
The Future Left is made up of ideologically diverse volunteers with the shared goal of advocating for progressive change. What initially started as a Futurist reading group gradually developed into an activist organization through our work on voter guides and became a force for political and social equity in Los Angeles. Our organization has grown in size at an exponential rate in the last year alone, due in no small part to a period of rapid cultural and economic change.
