10,000 Black Men Named George

Set in the 1920s, the struggle for labor rights and civil liberties among African-Americans takes center stage. The film explores the injustices faced by Pullman porters, who were derogatorily labeled "George" by white passengers, highlighting the racial prejudice of the era. As these men fight for recognition and the right to unionize, their collective journey reflects the broader fight against systemic racism and the quest for dignity and equality in a divided society. The title serves as a poignant reminder of their struggles and resilience in the face of discrimination.
