Over 30 years later and “Do the Right Thing” still sadly rings true. RELATED: LL Cool J Gets Real With Rap About Racism And George Floyd On Sunday, director Spike Lee shared a heartbreaking short film titled “3 Brothers” about the killing of unarmed black men in America. WARNING: DISTURBING FOOTAGE The film, which Lee shared on Twitter, intercuts cellphone video of the choking killings of Eric Garner and George Floyd with footage from a similar fictional police killing in his own iconic film from 1989.

Last week, as protests broke out around the U.S. over the Floyd killing, Lee tweeted out in his memory, as well as those of Ahmaud Arbery and Breonna Taylor, who were also recently killed, along with a shot at Donald Trump.
