Actor and former White House Associate Director of Public Engagement, Kal Penn, takes viewers around the world to meet key players behind some of the more serious and bizarre movements in today's economy.
An alarmingly disproportionate number of Black women are failed every year by the U.S. maternal health system. Shamony Gibson and Amber Rose Isaac were vibrant, excited mothers-to-be whose deaths due to childbirth complications were preventable. Now, their partners and families are determined to sound a rallying cry around this chilling yet largely ignored crisis. Directors Paula Eiselt and Tonya Lewis Lee follow Gibson’s and Isaac’s bereaved partners, Omari Maynard and Bruce McIntyre, as they fight for justice and build communities of support, bonding especially with other surviving Black fathers. Their tragic, individual experiences are punctuated with condemning historical context, showing that gynecology has a long-standing history of exploiting and neglecting Black women in America. In the arresting words of mother-to-be Felicia Ellis, “A Black woman having a baby is like a Black man at a traffic stop with the police.” She emphasizes that paying attention is paramount. Aftershock brings an unsettling reality to the forefront while uplifting the families, activists, and birth workers who are striving to bring institutional change and legislative reform. These mothers will not be forgotten.

有没有可能在数千年前智慧生命已经访问过地球,带来了他们的科技,彻底的改变了人类历史发展进程? 由Erich von Daniken撰写,1968年出版的畅销书《诸神的战车》提出了一个“远古外星人”的理论,颠覆了人们对于人类进程的信念。远古洞穴壁画中奇异的生物,秘鲁的飞机跑道遗迹,和印第安文字中所描述的“神的飞行器”这些反常的考古文物只是一小部分被von Daniken引用作为远古外星宇航员早已被我们的祖先所熟知的例证。 本片由von Daniken自己独立制作,《远古外星人》开始了全新的探险,寻找并评估这些证据。专注于最近30年间的最新发现,包括人类进化中不寻常的DNA和从埃及到叙利亚,到南美洲的最新解密的艺术品。这是对于一个从很多方面来说不能全信,但又不能被忽视的理论的一场没有偏向的调查。
