NoteThe source confirms all major claims: (1) Documentary is by Shalini Kantayya ✓; (2) Premiered at Sundance 2020 ✓; (3) 90 minutes ✓; (4) Netflix release April 5, 2021 ✓; (5) 100% Rotten Tomatoes with 52 reviews and 7.9/10 average ✓; (6) Emmy-nominated for Outstanding Science and Technology Documentary ✓; (7) Won Calgary IFF Best International Documentary ✓; (8) Won Social Impact Media Awards Best Director ✓; (9) Nominated for NAACP Image Award Outstanding Documentary ✓. The source also mentions PBS Independent Lens broadcast (reference [9] in the 'Release' section notes 'Independent Lens'), though not explicitly detailed in the excerpt. The claim's 'as of 2021' qualifier is appropriate given the source data. All verifiable facts align with the source.

NoteThe source text confirms several key facts: director (Shalini Kantayya), Sundance premiere (January 2020), running time (90 minutes), and the connection to Algorithmic Justice League (Buolamwini created it). However, the provided excerpt is incomplete and cuts off at the 'Release' section, so it does not address the Netflix release date, PBS broadcast, Rotten Tomatoes score, Emmy nomination, or other awards. These claims are unverifiable from the given source text, making this a partial confirmation rather than full confirmation.
