The Knick: 1901 

Cinemax | Season 2

To compliment The Knick’s second season, six behind-the-scenes interviews with the show’s cast and writers put modern social justice work in context, revealing how much -- and how little - life has changed since the 1900s.

I co-created and edited the series while working with writers to determine debatable themes presented in season 2.
