I Am Not Your Negro

Told entirely in the words of James Baldwin, through both personal appearances and the text of his final unfinished book project, Remember This House, this Oscar-nominated documentary is the epitome of “Black Power”. Touching on the tragic deaths of civil rights leaders Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr., and Medgar Evers, it brings powerful clarity to how the image (and reality) of blacks in America today is fabricated and enforced.
