Alexander appeared in the 2016 documentary [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/13^th_(film)]13^th[/url] directed by Ava DuVernay. As a guest expert interviewee, Alexander described the evolution of racial disparity in the United States of America through its evolution from slavery, the Jim Crow laws, the War on Drugs, to mass incarceration. Alexander said, "So many aspects of the Old Jim Crow are suddenly legal again once you've been branded a felon. And so it seems that in America, we haven't so much ended racial caste but simply redesigned it".
