John Burris: Godfather of Police Litigation

This impactful documentary tells the story of one man’s crusade and the challenges he has faced to bring justice to victims of police misconduct and brutality around the country. John Burris, the Godfather, has devoted over thirty years of his accomplished life as a civil rights attorney to pioneer a field of law that has helped to create positive change within our society. His cases include the 1991 Rodney King against the LA Police dept, 2009 Oscar Grant against the Oakland BART Police, and the 2015 Mario Woods against the SF Police department.

 

This documentary will be followed by a Q+A with John Burris himself and the Director of the film, Doug Harris.
