The Gotham Awards said today that Rustin<\/em>, director George C. Wolfe’s snapshot of the life of civil rights icon Bayard Rustin that stars Colman Domingo, will receive its Icon & Creator Tribute for Social Justice. The Netflix pic will be honored at the 33rd annual Gotham Awards on November 27 at Cipriani Wall Street in Manhattan.<\/p>\n

Rustin <\/em>follows the architect of the momentous 1963 March on Washington, who was one of the greatest activists and organizers of the Civil Rights movement. Working alongside such giants as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Adam Clayton Powell Jr., and Ella Baker, he challenged authority and never apologized for who he was, what he believed or who he desired. And Rustin did not back down. He made history, and in turn, he was forgotten by many.<\/p>\n
