The Rachel Divide is a 2018 English-language Documentary movie written by Laura Brownson and Jeff Seymann Gilbert. The movie is directed by Laura Brownson and produced by Laura Brownson, Khaliah Neal, Bridget Stokes, Tessa Treadway and Roger Ross Williams. Rachel Dolezal became infamous when she was unmasked as a white woman living as the black head of her local N.A.A.C.P. chapter. Her unbelievable story issued a direct challenge to the sensitive topics of race and identity, while playing into the age of viral media. Whether she was hated or simply misunderstood, Dolezal touched a collective nerve in the racially charged contemporary, causing her to burst into the public consciousness. Filming exclusively with Dolezal, her sons, and her adoptive sister Esther, documentarian Laura Brownson delves into the motivations and personal life of this divisive and controversial figure; in doing so, she explores the troubled past that has informed Dolezal's confusing present and uncertain future. Executive produced by Academy Award®-winner Roger Ross Williams, The Rachel Divide is a fully realized portrait of a life complex than any tabloid would lead its readers to believe. The film demands the question: Is Dolezal truly trans-black, as she describes herself, or is she the ultimate example of white privilege?. The rachel divide stars Esther Dolezal, Izaiah Dolezal and Rachel Dolezal. Editing was done by Jeff Seymann Gilbert. The film has a running time of 100 minutes. It was released on 27th April 2018. Distribution rights for the movie were acquired by Netflix.
