The series explores the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution – which promised liberty and equal protection for all persons in 1868 – as America’s most enduring hallmark of democracy.
Amend has a groundbreaking narrative format that features luminary performers, including Mahershala Ali, Diane Lane, Samuel L. Jackson, Pedro Pascal and Yara Shahidi reciting their speeches and writings by the Fourteenth Amendment’s most ardent protectors, from Frederick Douglass to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr to Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, with insights from a inclusive array of contemporary thought leaders and experts.
When United States of America was founded, the ideals of freedom and equality did not apply to all people. Amend is a story of those brave Americans who fought to right the nation’s wrongs and enshrine the values we hold into the Constitution.
Amend is going to be a powerful, multimedia journey through American history that encourages viewers to question what a “united states” really means.
