Spike Lee has released a short film set to Michael Jackson’s “They Don’t Care About Us” that incorporates scenes from the original two short films for the single and footage from recent protests around the world.
“Great protest songs can’t get old, stale or non-relevant because the struggle still continues,” he said. “That’s why ‘They Don’t Really Care About Us’ is the anthem during this chaotic, pandemic world we are living in.”
Jackson wrote and produced “They Don’t Care About Us” for the compilation HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I. Lee unveiled the film during his annual Brooklyn Loves Michael Jackson block party, which this year took place virtually.
