The film is inspired by the 1863 photos of &#8220;Whipped Peter,&#8221; taken during a Union Army medical examination, that first appeared in Harper&#8217;s Weekly. One image, known as &#8220;The Scourged Back,&#8221; which shows Peter&#8217;s bare back mutilated by a whipping delivered by his enslavers, ultimately contributed to growing public opposition to slavery.<\/p><div id=\"morty-2444111544\" class=\"morty-content\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>Ben Foster (&#8220;Hell or High Water,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Leave No Trace<\/em>&#8220;), Charmaine Bingwa (&#8220;<em>The Good Fight<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Black Box<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Trees of Peace<\/em>&#8220;), Gilbert Owuor (&#8220;<em>Montana Story<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Mute<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Reprisal<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Calls<\/em>&#8220;) and Mustafa Shakir (&#8220;<em>Soul Assassin<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Cowboy Bebop<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Marvel&#8217;s Luke Cage<\/em>&#8221; and &#8220;<em>The Deuce<\/em>&#8220;) star alongside Smith in &#8220;<em>Emancipation<\/em>.&#8221; The ensemble cast also includes Steven Ogg (&#8220;<em>Snowpiercer<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Westworld<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>The Tick<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>The Walking Dead<\/em>&#8220;), Grant Harvey (&#8220;<em>Animal Kingdom<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>The Crossing<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>All For Nikki<\/em>&#8220;), Ronnie Gene Blevins (&#8220;<em>Conjuring 3: The Devil Made Me Do It<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Death In Texas<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Joe<\/em>&#8220;), Jayson Warner Smith (&#8220;<em>The Walking Dead<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Rectify<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>The Birth of a Nation<\/em>&#8220;), Jabbar Lewis (&#8220;<em>Terminal List<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Adventure Force 5<\/em>&#8220;), Michael Luwoye (&#8220;<em>The Gifted<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Prodigal Son<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>She&#8217;s Gotta Have It<\/em>&#8220;), Aaron Moten (&#8220;<em>Next<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Disjointed<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Stu<\/em>&#8220;) and newcomer Imani Pullum.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>Emancipation<\/em>&#8221; is directed by Antoine Fuqua, from a script by William N.
