J.J. Abrams, who moderated a panel for the limited series on Sunday, called it "an act of remarkable tightrope walk-ery that just blows my mind and breaks my heart."
During the conversation, DuVernay revealed that not only does she talk to the real-life Central Park Five members on a weekly, if not daily, basis, but she's also bringing all five as her dates to Emmys, where the show is up for 16 awards. "'Central Park Five' I associate with a moniker that was given to these men and thrust upon them. They did not choose it and it's not who they are," she said. "They are Korey [Wise], Antron [McCray], Raymond [Santana], Kevin [Richardson] and Yusef [Salaam]. They have mothers, they have dreams, they have families, they have beating hearts and are human beings and they're not this moniker, and I didn't want it.

ava Their names are Korey, Kevin, Antron, Raymond and Yusef and it's important we refer to these men by their names. Together they make the Exonerated Five and I for one, can't wait to see them take that stage and feel the love they so deserve with the woman who told their story.
