Every once in a while, a true life story emerges that demands to be told. One that defies logic, shatters prejudice, and exposes the undercurrents of corruption. It challenges the limits of human compassion, forcing the heart to reckon with the impossible. And yet, through love, resilience and sheer force of will, it proves that the unthinkable can become reality.
"Shut'Em Down," a gripping four-part documentary that exposes the gritty realities of the minority civil rights movement in New York’s construction industry during the 1970s and the violence that followed through the 1990s. Led by James Haughton of Harlem Fightback, this story uncovers a brutal landscape where the construction industry is systematically shaken down by organized crime, non-union labor groups, corrupt city officials, and law enforcement.
