He went to Marquette University and Harvard Law School and has been a trial lawyer for over 40 years. In 2011\, Robinson began raising his then 13-year-old nephew and\, as a Black man raising a Black son\, struggled with what to tell his son about racism in America. How\, he wondered\, did we get here? And when he started looking at American history\, Robinson was shocked by what he had not known. For the past 10 years\, in community centres\, concert halls\, houses of worship\, and conference rooms across America\, he has been sharing what he learned. In WHO WE ARE — A CHRONICLE OF RACISM IN AMERICA\, Robinson faces his largest audience\, asking all of us to examine who we are\, where we come from\, and who we want to be. Anchored by Robinson’s 2018 performance at NYC’s historic Town Hall Theatre\, the film interweaves historical and present-day archival footage\, Robinson’s personal story\, and observational and interview footage capturing Robinson’s meetings with Black change-makers and eyewitnesses to history. From a hanging tree in Charleston\, South Carolina\, to a walking tour of the origins of slavery in colonial New York\, to the site of a 1947 lynching in rural Alabama\, the film brings history to life\, exploring the enduring legacy of white supremacy and our collective responsibility to overcome it. \n  \nAwards: 5 wins\, 8 nominations\nNominated – Best Documentary\, AARP Movies for Grownups Awards\, 2022\nWinner – AAFCA Award\, Best Independent Film\, African-American Film Critics Association (AAFCA)\, 2022\nNominated – Best Documentary\, Minneapolis St. Paul International Film Festival\, 2021\nWinner – Bridging the Borders Award\, Special Mention\, Palm Springs International Film Festival\, 2022\nWinner – Golden Space Needle Award\, Best Documentary\, Seattle International Film Festival\, 2021\nWinner – Audience Award\, Documentary Spotlight\, SXSW Film Festival\, 2021\nNominated – New Directors Competition\, Best Film\, São Paulo International Film Festival\, 2021\nWinner – Films for Change Award\, Woodstock Film Festival\, 2021 \n  \nFunded by: City of Barrie\, Ontario Trillium Foundation and Telefilm Canada \nSponsored by: Busch Systems\, Digital Giants\, Lehman & Associates\, Netgain\, Plumbtech Plumbing Inc.\, Sigma Engagement Systems\, and Venable Park Investment Council Inc. \n
