Spike Lee is calling for Americans to “wake up” in his latest joint, an endorsement ad, for Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders.
The director called on all-star team of activists and celebrities such as Harry Belafonte, Erica Garner (Eric Garner’s daughter), Rosario Dawson, Susan Sarandon, Linda Sarsour, Dr. Cornel West, actress Tessa Thompson, among many others.
The video was posted just three days before the New York primary on April 19. Aptly called “Wake Up,” it juxtaposes the stars addressing issues like racial inequalities, social justice, affordable housing, minimum wage and education to clips of Sanders speaking about these issues at his rally in the Bronx.

MacReadyOrNot: Just in case I don't go on here before or during Thanksgiving, everyone have a wonderful holiday. Any birthdays I failed to make note of this year so far, I'm sorry. Happy Belated Birthday. If there are any in this upcoming week, Happy Early Birthday.

MacReadyOrNot: Crazy times. These protests against racism needed to happen. Can't be silent any more. Don't forget, though, COVID is still out there. Still, support #blacklivesmatter. Support each other. Plenty of ways. Inform yourselves. Stay woke.

MacReadyOrNot: Sorry I haven't been here lately. Just been somewhat busy. Somewhat depressed. Somewhat overwhelmed. Been trying to keep up with people. Work. Cash flow. All that. Hope you all are well.
