Jacob Soboroff's film, "Separated"... [View all]

Jacob's Soboroff's comprehensive, thoughtful + sensitive reporting of the travesty that was RTump's border policy of child separation brought me to tears on multiple occasions. That children may be subjected to similar abuse if RTump is re-elected is beyond outrageous + criminal. These children were subjected to harms that will never be addressed or remedied...

The film is based on journalist Jacob Soboroff's book “Separated: Inside an American Tragedy.” I am grateful that Jacob will not let these children + their families be forgotten...

Thankful as well that Errol Morris is able to portray these events on film... Morris, writing in a director's statement, said he intended the film to be both an exploration of the “terrible misdeeds of our recent past” + a “cautionary tale for the future.”

The film will be screened on MSNBC on 12/07/2024.
