As the seventh film in the Think Before You Shoot series, "Above the Law" addresses the varying perspectives between the African American community and White law enforcement. This film encourages both black citizens and law enforcement to identify their unconscious bias in everyday scenarios. We address the impact these scenarios have both the community as well as law enforcement. Unfortunately, by being an officer of the law, they tend to use their badge as a way to bail them out with many excuses that still doesn't justify their actions. So when officers know they have great chances of walking away after taking an innocent black life, they then go around living and feeling as if they are above the law.
