Chad O. Jackson
Chad O. Jackson, the Dallas-based filmmaker and small business owner, has made a habit of turning the camera on tough questions. He is also impervious to the effects of either praise or criticism, so his films are decidedly absent the audience preference gene. Buckle up.
As an independent documentarian, Jackson is a subject matter expert when it comes to showing his audiences how America’s social constructs sausage is made… and he’s not afraid of slaughtering a few sacred cows in the process. His film work isn’t just about looking back at history and stating the obvious. They’re about exposing the little-known connective tissue between yesterday’s ill-gotten lessons and today’s sobering realities, chronicling how the past’s echoes either sound the alarms to course correct or beckon a harkening back to this country’s long-forgotten (or never discovered) buried treasure.
