GRAYSON PERRY’S BIG AMERICAN ROAD TRIP
CHANNEL 4 | APPLE TV
In this three-part documentary travelogue, award-winning artist and social commentator, Grayson Perry, travels across the USA to explore the meaning of the American Dream today. At a time when the nation seems more divided than ever, Grayson spends time with people from all different walks of life, to try to understand how Americans today view issues of identity, race, money and class.
In this episode, Grayson goes to the American South to understand racial division, police hostility and code switching.
(This documentary was filmed in 2019, one year prior to the death of George Floyd and the subsequent Black Lives Matter protests).
