The Help’ is Top Trending Movie on Netflix During George Floyd Protests

The 2011 film “The Help” starring Octavia Spencer is one of the most popular movies on Netflix at the moment.The film centers on Black servants and their white employers, and appears to be a resource for folks to learn about Black history amid protests over race relations in America

“I Am Not Your Negro” -Raoul Peck

“13th” by@ava

“Get Out” by @JordanPeele
