It is co-directed by Valerie Scoon (<em>Invisible History: Middle Florida\u2019s Hidden Roots<\/em>). Scoon and Nelson produced the series. Executive producers are Marcia Smith and Keith Brown for Firelight Films and Jacqueline Glover for ABC News Studios.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis film couldn\u2019t be more timely, but it also closely connects to much of the history that I\u2019ve explored in my past work\u2014from the Civil War-era slave patrols, the advent of Jim Crow at the turn of the century, the uprisings against police brutality in the latter half of the 20th century to the many acts of police violence against African Americans that we\u2019ve witnessed in the media in recent times,\u201d said Nelson. \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to partner with ABC News Studios on this important project and look forward to sharing and discussing the film with audiences.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s been a rewarding experience working with Stanley and Firelight Films on this project,\u201d Scoon added. \u201cWhile much of my work as a director and producer has engaged with African American history, this film is particularly personal. Stanley and I are both parents of young adults, and that perspective has informed the importance we place on examining the history of the relationship between law enforcement and the Black community. We hope this film will inspire conversations that will save lives and build stronger communities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is an honor for ABC News Studios to be working with incredible storytellers Stanley Nelson and Valerie Scoon,\u201d said Mike Kelley, head of ABC News Studios. \u201cThey have an unparalleled ability to detail the lives of Black Americans as they do so thoughtfully in their examination of the complex relationship with law enforcement in <em>Sound of the Police<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ABC News Studios\u2019 Sound of the Police, directed by Emmy-winning and Oscar-nominated filmmaker Stanley Nelson (The Murder of Emmett Till, Attica), is slated to debut on Hulu on August 11.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":19929,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[6209,7925,267,7926,7927,7928,7929],"class_list":["post-19928","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-abc-news-studios","tag-firelight-films","tag-hulu","tag-mike-kelley","tag-sound-of-the-police","tag-stanley-nelson","tag-valerie-scoon","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
