James Baldwin On Film: A Tribute

ABOUT THE SERIES:

Great American thinker, writer and activist, James Baldwin and his commitment to art, expression and justice both in the U.S. and abroad are shown in this recently restored shorts program, comprised of “James Baldwin: From Another Place”, “Meeting The Man: James Baldwin” and “Baldwin’s N*****”, along with the Oscar-nominated documentary, I AM NOT YOUR NEGRO, and Barry Jenkins’ deeply soulful adaptation, IF BEALE STREET COULD TALK. Covering Black Power and revolutionaries, the nature of love, the carceral state and challenging the very foundations of America, Baldwin’s onscreen presence and opinions are never less than revelatory, riveting and radical.
