”4CHOSEN” tells the story of four young minority basketball players from New York City who were traveling to North Carolina for a college basketball showcase when they were profiled by two NJ State Troopers and shot 13 times. A powerful team of attorneys led by Johnnie Cochran assist them as they rebuild their lives and influence major law changes. April 23, 2008 marks the 10 Year Anniversary of this incident. This documentary, produced and directed by actor Jon Doscher and narrated by Montel Williams, features interviews with Reverend Al Sharpton, Peter Neufeld, Barry Schek, and Wynton Marsalis.
According to Raver, “We are thrilled to welcome Montel Williams to host this special benefit that will raise money for Mr. William’s very worthwhile Foundation.”
