Protests police brutality
Tarantino joins hundreds of demonstrators to protest police brutality nationwide.
I’m a human being with a conscience, and if you believe there’s murder going on then you need to rise up and stand up against it. I’m here to say I’m on the side of the murdered.
The event is the last of three demonstrations the group RiseUpOctober organized in New York this week. Speakers at the protest say they want justice for people killed by police.
Backs Tarantino
The Hateful Eight producer Sher comes to Tarantino’s defense:
I think it’s incredibly unfair. Quentin is a filmmaker who really dives into things very seriously and deeply. And when he does interviews, he really wears his heart on his sleeve and he doesn’t hold anything back. He doesn’t think about how things are going to be packaged into sound bites of this kind of click-bait world that we live in…He’s prepared to not censor himself. He takes the bullets and goes out on the front line on the things that he cares about.
