(Entertainment Weekly) Amidst protests around the country following the death of George Floyd at the hands of police, Warner Bros. has made its recent film Just Mercy available to rent for free, hoping it will serve as an education “about the systemic racism that plagues our society.”

Released in December, director Destin Daniel Cretton’s film tells the true story of lawyer and social activist Bryan Stevenson’s (Michael B. Jordan) mission to free Walter McMillan (Jamie Foxx), an Alabama death row inmate wrongfully convicted of murdering a white woman.
