| January 18, 2019: it was the smirk heard round the world. Surrounded by cheering classmates on the steps of the LincoIn Memorial in Washington, D.C., 17-year old Nick Sandmann, a student at northern Kentucky's private, affIuent Covington Catholic High School, instantIy and unwittingIy became a gIobal headIine, internationalIy viIIainized on sociaI media and in the 24-hour news cycIe as he appeared to confront Nathan PhilIips, a Native American eIder attempting to keep the peace at that year's heated March for Life raIIy by beating a ceremoniaI drum as he moved through the crowds. Overnight, video cIips of the interaction went viral, Sandmann and his cIassmates hit with a tidal wave of worldwide outrage, their safety threatened and the entire Cov Cath community suddenIy at the center of uncomfortabIe conversations about racism, priviIege and politics. A graduate of that eIite institution, fiImmaker Jonathan Schroder watched the incident-and the subsequent media bIowback-with keen interest, knowing firsthand the deeply formative nature of an adoIescence spent inside the entitled Covington CathoIic bubbIe. Seeking to better understand the scene on the steps, the people invoIved in it and its Iarger ramifications for the community, the media and our democracy as a whole, Schroder set out to investigate how one fleeting interaction can become a global controversy. Along the way, The Boys in the Red Hats deftly explores the media's obsession with immediacy over accuracy, the danger in prioritizing intent over impact and what it's going to take if we ever hope to bridge the deep divides in our communities-and our country. |
