Now, Cullors is attempting to remake herself as an activist for reparations for slavery, with a book entitled, An Abolitionist’s Handbook: 12 Steps to Changing Yourself and the World, due out Jan.  25, the Hollywood Reporter said.

Other projects she is working on for Warners includes one on marijuana, a series about black women leaders, and a show to trace the “toll” on black Americans as they are forced to live in a “system that doesn’t see us, or makes us hyper-visible and also hyper-invisible at the same time.”
