Filmed stage play of actual grand jury testimony "debunks the liars."

Conservative documentary filmmaker Phelim McAleer debuted his Verbatim Theater play FERGUSON last year in Los Angeles to much controversy. Professional actors were hired to read word-for-word from the actual grand jury testimony of the shooting death of Michael Brown by Ferguson officer Darren Wilson. The fact that these were the actual testimonies of the witnesses to the shooting, with no additions for dramatic purposes, proved troublesome for McAleer's play as left-leaning actors walked out of the production feeling it was biased by conservative politics. It also didn't sit well with critics from multiple media outlets who didn't want to accept anything other than the "hands up, don't shoot" narrative that erupted from the incident. Even McAleer was accosted himself by an angry audience member after a showing.
Yet the play made its four-night run with replacement actors and zero changes to the "script" and now it has been turned into a film which premiered Wednesday evening online.
McAleer talked about his play-turned-film and the fallout that ensued in an accompanying exclusive for The Daily Wire:
I wrote a play that offered ten roles for black men and women and even three significant roles for black women over 40 - which everyone agrees can be a career death zone for women (of all races).
And as a "diversity bonus" the play was going to be about an issue that of huge significance to the black community
And this was to be no w****splaining of the issue. I wrote, or rather curated, the play only using actual Grand Jury testimony of witnesses (most of them black). I didn't change their testimony at all. Not a paragraph, word or comma was added. It was to be a minute by minute account by multiple eyewitnesses of the last hours of Michael Brown's life...
These facts did not please the actors who wanted to tell a different story... Nine of the original 13 actors walked out. Most of them were black. Then a few of the white cast walked out in sympathy - one just 24 hours before the performance opened.
Their walkout made a mockery of claims that there is a need for more diverse roles in the entertainment industry...
In reality what activists obviously meant was that they wanted black roles that pushed a left/liberal agenda. They may have wanted the actors faces to be a diverse color but they so did not want diversity of thought or ideas to be presented on the stage. No - those ideas had to be shut down.
T***hRevolt suggests watching FERGUSON before YouTube finds its agenda threatened and takes it down.
Currently, McAleer is in production for his next film about "America's biggest serial k**ler," serial a******nist Kermit Gosnell. McAleer is also know for debunking environmental extremists in his 2013 film, FrackNation.

Officer Wilson suffered and was in the brink of his death when attacked by a huge man Brown who was loaded with drugs in his system. This Brown just committed crime stealing and knocking down a store clerk. Then walked at the middle of the streets defied the officer's order. When confronted by the officer to stay out of the Middle of the traffic, Brown and his companion defied the officer's order.
Brown approached the officer, trying to get his gun as shown on the forensic evidence his finger prints on the gun. Brown punched the police officer as shown on the officers face swollen and bleeding. Brown fought to get the gun from the officer and then the injured officer shot Brown when he feared that this huge Brown will k**l him.
Testimony of Brown's friend were all lies, and inconsistent. Forensic evidence showed that Brown was about to k**l the officer. Wilson shot Brown in self defense.
Three high powered officials from the WH were sent by Obama to Ferguson during Brown's funeral. Al Sharpton lead a marching parade and emboldened more b****s to r**t, burned and destroyed police cars, and other people's homes, businesses, and cars.
In my opinion, these kinds of behavior must not be tolerated.
Those violent people must be put in jail, along with the leader Al Sharpton.
Now officer Wilson has suffered losing his job, his future and is family has been destroyed by thugs because he was doing the right thing protecting the community of Ferguson. I think officer Wilson is a hero!
