Happy Birthday James Baldwin! Racial discrimination is not just history, either. Today's pop culture can still be used for reading like in the film, white superiority is less direct but not more implicit. The normalized ideological hegemony and violence of society has always permeated all aspects of life, but still believe that good cultural criticism and literature can be...

The documentary "I'm Not Your Nigga" isn't expressing anger or crying out humiliation to the world, it's just a literary confession. Baldwin's words and speeches are calm and powerful, Samuel's narration is soulful and sentimental. It makes you have to think: What created the black problem? And people are always used to escaping from reality, never wanting to look back and face history, even if they are so safe and...

【Exhibition at the China Film Archive】The content of the letter is accompanied by a video. The "niggers" of the street movement in the 1960s; the "niggers" who shouted in the 1960s; the "niggers" who were shot in the 1960s; the happy white people and the sad images on the screen from the 1920s to the 1960s Freeze-frame "niggers"; finally: I'm not a nigger. James Baldwin's speech is more persuasive than the lines in the narration. The contemporary picture is...

Video letters, well written. The director was on the 2012 Cannes Film Festival competition jury, but I don't remember him at all. I only remember Jean Paul Gaultier and Nanni Moretti, a left-wing social activist who announced with an Italian accent that "amore" won the Palme...

One of the best and very important documentaries I've seen in recent years. Between Baldwin's autobiographical notes and the traumatic memories of black Americans, between individual histories and grand histories, there is an elegant and sharp counterpoint. The most outstanding thing is the extensive citations of various video and historical materials, making the film like a beautiful and painful love letter to the black people who lived in the film. An uninterrupted...

It was undoubtedly a very precious moment when he first noticed the Guilt and Vulnerability between the lines of Baldwin, but Peck did not grasp this clue that he had no reason to miss as he was in the same situation, and sent his ambition to make a film. Really disappointing in a didactic movie for the unteachable crowd. The setting to read the film with the deaths of several "comrades" works well, but it's exhausting to loop back to the same themes over and over again. Also, I wish Baldwin...
