Will Smith’s New Film Opposes GA Voting Laws

The Fresh Prince is taking a stand. The shooting of the cinema legend’s new slavery-era movie Emancipation has been moved to a different location in response to Georgia’s controversial new voting laws.

 “At this moment in time, the Nation is coming to terms with its history and is attempting to eliminate vestiges of institutional racism to achieve true racial justice. We cannot in good conscience provide economic support to a government that enacts regressive voting laws that are designed to restrict voter access. The new Georgia voting laws are reminiscent of voting impediments that were passed at the end of Reconstruction to prevent many Americans from voting. Regrettably, we feel compelled to move our film production work from Georgia to another state.” (Deadline)

Will Smith Playing Peter

Will Smith is playing a slave named Peter who fled a plantation, later on joining the Union Army during the Civil War. It’s based off of a true story, and Peter is known to be the man in “The Scourged Back” photo.

When the photo — which came to be known as “The Scourged Back” — was published by The Independent in May 1863 and then in the Harper’s Weekly July 4 issue, it became indisputable proof of the cruelty and barbarity of slavery in America. The photo reached around the world. It solidified the cause of abolitionists and prompted many free Blacks to join the Union Army.
