Series: "When they see us"

My favorite serie since 2015 was "Psycho-Pass". But, in last July a friend recommended me to watch "When they see us".

"When they see us" is web serie produced for Netflix that it's based on the events of the 1989 "Central Park Joger" case. The show explores the lifes of the five males suspects who were accused of rape and assault. Four of the five men were afroamerican, and the other one was latin. They were innocent, but condemned anyway.
I enjoy the series who are based on real events, but I specially liked "When they see us" because it expose the flaws of the american judicial system. Also, it reveals how racist the american society trully is.
 When I was watching the show, I cried on every episode because the violence who suffered the five innocent guys was just heartbreaking. That is a side of the society who no one wants to see: the side who oppress people that are not white.
In the first episodes, we can see how the police department pressured the five guys to "confess" the crime even when the clues, the places and the time did not fit. They don't even try to get another suspect. It was so frustrating, but at least, in 2003 the real five men sued the City of New York for malicious prosecution, racial discrimination, and emotional distress. The case was settled in 2016 for a total of $3.9 million.



Now, I would like to see Sense8 because it is a friend's favorite serie and she always tells me about how good it is.
