520 |a THE ISSUE OF MR. O'DELL examines the lifelong work of a pioneering civil rights organizer Jack O'Dell, who was a close colleague and advisor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in the years before the March on Washington. But after President John F. Kennedy named him the number five Communist in America, O'Dell was eventually forced out of King's organization. In soft-spoken interviews, O'Dell discusses systemic racism, past and present, and dissects America's troubled history with racial discrimination. The wisdom of the 94-year-old activist speaks to the present as his experiences fighting alongside Dr. King resonate strongly with the Black Lives Matter movement. Shot in sobering black and white, THE ISSUE OF MR. O'DELL illustrates how change begins at the personal level and takes an arduous path to reach the collective consciousness. Jack O'Dell passed away in 2019 at the age of ninety-six, after this film was completed.
