“Kimberly Reed’s documentary tackles a knotty legal subject: the history (and vital importance of) campaign finance reform, the repercussions of the 2010 Citizens United Supreme Court ruling, and who is pulling the strings when it comes to our elected officials. It should probably be required viewing for American citizens." - Vogue
We screen Dark Money by Kimberly Reed at Burning Books next Wednesday at 7 pm - Free!
