Sign into Netflix and you’re going to see something different: a Black Lives Matter hub.
Announced on Twitter, the new hub features movies, shows and documentaries ranging from When They See Us and Pose to Homecoming and 13th.
“When we say ‘Black Lives Matter,’ we also mean ‘Black storytelling matters,'” the streamer said in a tweet. “With an understanding that our commitment to true, systemic change will take time – we’re starting by highlighting powerful and complex narratives about the Black experience.”
Other programming includes Kerry Washington in American Son and Seven Seconds, a crime drama Regina King won an Emmy for.
“When you log onto Netflix today, you will see a carefully curated list of titles that only begin to tell the complex and layered stories about racial injustice and Blackness in America,” Netflix tweeted.
After the death of George Floyd, Netflix took to social media to support the Black Lives Matter movement. “To be silent is to be complicit. Black lives matter,” the streaming platform’s statement on May 30 read. “We have a platform, and we have a duty to our Black members, employees, creators and talent to speak up.”
