WitchHunt 2020
WitchHunt 2020 is a short sequel to Jon Pullman’s 2019 documentary WitchHunt. It takes stock of the political forces, described in the original film, which destroyed Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership of the UK Labour Party along with the hopes of so many who identified with his passion for social justice. It highlights the similar campaign waged against the left-wing Jewish American presidential candidate Bernie Sanders who, like Corbyn, stood firm for the rights of the Palestinian people. Finally, it invokes the broader international struggle against racist and chauvinist forces seeking to delegitimise the Black Lives Matter movement.
