‘I Am Not Your Negro’
This Oscar-nominated documentary presents celebrated black intellectual and author James Baldwin in his own words, from excerpts from his writing to public appearances (some great Dick Cavett Show clips). The strength of Baldwin’s descriptions of the state of race in Civil Rights Era America is never less than forcefully prescient for what’s happening today, and there is no more captivating voice on the subject. You can also look forward to a brilliant voice-over by Samuel L. Jackson.
