Dear John.

Comcast and its executives are seeking to roll back landmark civil rights
protections for Black people, while also seeking to profit from our pain
and the history of our struggle.  

Just two weeks before its Supreme Court challenge to our oldest civil
rights law, Comcast, the parent company of film production company Focus
Features, is releasing the autobiographical film Harriet, based on the
formerly enslaved and abolitionist hero Harriet Tubman. Tubman risked her
life countless times to free hundreds of enslaved people and lived to see
the nation’s first civil rights law come to pass: the Civil Rights Act of
1866 — the same civil rights act that Comcast is currently petitioning the
Supreme Court to strike down. 

We cannot allow a corporation to set a dangerous precedent with our
rights, while also profiting from the painful past that led to the passing
of the very civil rights act it is challenging.
