About this video

“This film is not the answer, but it’s a call to action.” Emmy award-winning documentarian Alexandria Stapleton talks to Josh Johnson about producing and directing the Netflix docuseries, “Sean Combs: The Reckoning,” including her shared concern with producing partner Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson not to indict the entire Hip-Hop culture along with the music mogul and how the sense of trepidation among the documentary crew and interview participants has shifted since the release of the series and the arrest of Sean Combs. They also share their personal theories of how Combs, a master of reinvention, might try to rebrand himself upon his release and how Stapleton hopes the series will lead to more conversations that can help push Hip-Hop, society, and justice systems forward. #DailyShow #AlexandriaStapleton #SeanCombsTheReckoning
