    Hallowed Ground reframes Eyes on the Prize for the 21st century while also encouraging us to dig into the award-winning series. It stirs up some emotion and surely offers some inspiration to the next generation of activists — just like Hampton did.

    She aims to create a modern art film in the Marlon Riggs/Cheryl Dunye vein, to offer a bold intellectual thesis as in HBO’s 2020 adaptation of Ta-Nehisi Coates’ Between the World and Me, and to provide an all-encompassing echo of the much more traditional Eyes on the Prize. I don’t know that she’s completely successful. Still, Hallowed Ground is full of moments of beauty and moments of coiled rage.
