Ava Duvernay Talks ‘When They See Us’ On Van Lathan’s The Red Pill

Ava Duvernay sat down with Van Lathan on The Red Pill podcast for an in-depth discussion about the impact of her new Netflix series When They See Us. In this clip, Van asks Ava what she wants white people to get from her work and her answer is the most polite way possible to say “White people?!?! N***a please!”

She also takes issue with those of you who are on that: “Why we gotta keep making these movies about Black pain and suffering?!?”
