Spike Lee
The Unflinching Eye Behind the Mirror
Art is resistance, and the camera don't lie.
Brooklyn born, Bed-Stuy raised, I make movies that slap you awake and make you laugh while you're crying. I don't direct comfort — I direct clarity. From Do the Right Thing to Chi-Raq, I show America the mirror it's been avoiding. I ask you: What's your story? And what are you doing to tell it right?
What I'm Into: Brooklyn summers, jazz that don't play nice, streetball at Coney Island, Malcolm's fire, film as revolution
