This week on Black on Black Cinema, the guys are back to discuss the 1991 independent film, Daughters of the Dust. Taking place in 1902, the film depicts the days before a Gullah (or Geechee) family decides to leave their island off the coast of South Carolina to move to the mainland United States. What is seemingly a video essay of sorts about the migration of cultures and the preservation of those cultures plays as a direct throughline to some modern African American norms of today. Daughters of the Dust works to show just how others see their place in the history of their own culture and family.

This week on Black on Black Cinema, the guys are back to discuss the 2000 Spike Lee film, Bamboozled. Taking a satirical, and sometimes not so satirical, look at how the media portrays Black people in the modern age. When a highly educated Pierre Delacroix (Damon Wayans) decides to pitch an insane idea of a modern day minstrel show to his racist boss in hopes of showing just how bigoted the network’s views were, things backfire and the show is a massive success. Pitting the notion of cooning, desires for success, and a willingness to stand for what is right are all pitted against one another in what is easily Spike Lee’s most controversial films to date.
