Instead Willmott spoke to an audience on Sept. 22 at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship about what he said is a more important issue, the growing decline of the nation, with the current Trump administration at the forefront of that decline. Willmott isn't one to shy away from controversy and political issues in his own storytelling and filmmaking. He rose to acclaim with the 2004 historical mockumentary "C.S.A.: The Confederate States of America," which tells an alternate-history account of the Confederacy winning the civil war. Willmott followed that film up with other works that highlight marginalized groups, including co-writing the 2018 Spike Lee film "BlacKkKlansman," which was nominated for six Oscars, including a win by Willmott and Lee and also joined by Charlie Wachtel and David Rabinowitz, for Best Adapted Screenplay.
