Directed by A.J. Ali, this 2017 documentary examines the complex problem of racial profiling, both for those being profiled and police officers accused of profiling, and offers cooperative solutions that can bridge the gap between. A panel discussion with members of the filmmaking team follows the film. (Film runtime: 94 min.)
