Documentary series on leading Dutch hiphop artist Typhoon who traveled through the US last year on a quest for knowledge and inspiration.
Performing artist Typhoon regularly speaks out against racism and has been inspired by the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King. From afar in The Netherlands he has been trying to keep track of news reports on police brutality, inequality and the fight of the activists of #BlackLivesMatter.
Now, exactly fifty years after Dr. King was brutally murdered in Memphis, Typhoon traveled to Boston, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Charlottesville, New Orleans, Memphis and Saint Louis.
While on the road he met with modern day activists, victims of racism and exclusion in present day America and with fellow artists who speak out.
This series aired in April and May of 2018 on the third channel of Dutch Public TV.
