Feeling at once enraged and in awe of the formidable mind, that is James Baldwin. Thinker, disrupter and truth teller, Baldwin’s stand on calling out the vice of white power in historical and present day oppression of Black Americans, was uncompromising. This film followed his close associations with Medger, MalcolmX and MLK, revealing an inspiring camaraderie in shared visions, that history would prefer to suppress. The juxtaposing of film and news footage, between Baldwin’s notable commentary, including his famous Cambridge debate, made for a crucial learning resource. So much to unpack. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
