Uprooted

In 1986, Keith Warren, a young Black man, was found hanging in the woods of Silver Spring, Maryland. Police ruled it a suicide, but Keith’s family believed it was a lynching. Six years after his death, a package appeared on Keith’s mother’s porch, containing evidence that cemented the family’s suspicions: was this a cover up?

Hosted by Alicia Garza, organizer and co-founder of Black Lives Matter, “Uprooted” follows Keith Warren’s case, uncovering the systemic failures that prevented Keith and his family from getting justice, as well as the future of social justice reform and the journey forward.
