| Title: | WITHOUT PREJUDICE |
| Logline: | The incredible true story of one of the nation’s first African-American female lawyers who overcame racism and gender bias, risking both her job and her life, to bring down the most infamous gangster in New York City’s history. |
| Pitch: | HIDDEN FIGURES meets THE UNTOUCHABLES |
| Writer: | Kenlon Clark & William Rubio |
| Genre: | Drama | Period | Thriller |
| Why to Read: | A classic setting but with a very different story, this is an underdog tale of the highest order. Not only is the protagonist taking on the New York gangsters of the 1930s, but she is also fighting racial and gender discrimination at the same time. The drama and the danger here feels realistic, and it never lets up. As a real life African-American woman, Eunice Carter is a true hero that not only deserves to have her story told, but the story itself demands it. It’s powerful and inspiring, and Eunice provides a character who can be role model for all Americans. |
