The grant for the digitalisation of black newspaper during the segregation is quite self-explanatory. Unless you're against archiving newspapers, and if you are, why?
And the documentary was on Jewish women treatment during the Holocaust, which, surprisingly does not exist yet. It is also easy to justify. In general, documentaries easily get some state grants to cover their production costs, because it's cheap education (more than action movies let's say) even though, in my opinion, the information density is low.
But if the argument is that grants shouldn't go towards documentaries, I can agree. If the argument is that it shouldn't go towards this specific documentary and others are fine, I would ask why? Is it because it's on women? On Jews? On the Holocaust?
