Spike Lee has directed, written, produced, and acted in dozens
of films that present an expansive, nuanced, proudly opinionated,
and richly multifaceted portrait of American society. As the only
African-American filmmaker ever to establish a world-class career,
Lee has paid acute attention to the experiences of racial and
ethnic minorities. But white men and women also play important
roles in his movies, and his interest in class, race, and urban
life hasn't prevented his films from ranging over broad
swaths of the American scene in stories as diverse as the audiences
who view them. His defining trait is a willingness to raise hard
questions about contemporary America without pretending to have
easy answers; his pictures are designed to challenge and provoke
us, not ease our minds or pacify our emotions. The opening words of
his 1989 masterpiece Do the Right Thing present his core
message in two emphatic syllables: "Wake up!"
Spike Lee's America is a vibrant and provocative
engagement not only with the work of a great filmmaker, but also
with American society and politics.
