Criterion Channel is offering some of their black-centered films for free right now (likely region restricted to the US but still)

Body and Soul (1925) dir. Oscar Micheaux

The Scar of Shame (1929) dir. Frank Perugini

note the director was white but the cast is all-black

Portrait of Jason (1967) dir. Shirley Clarke

note that I’ve seen this and the doc itself is a bit exploitative and hard to watch in the director’s treatment of Jason but imo still worth a watch for Jason alone

Symbiopsychotaxiplasm Take One (1968) dir. William Greaves

Interesting concept but be warned of rampant homophobia esp. use of the f slur

Black Panthers (1970) dir. Agnès Varda

Again white director but she gives the party room to speak for itself

A Well Spent Life (1971) dir. Les Blank

Suzanne, Suzanne (1982) dir. Camille Billops, James Hatch

Cane River (1982) dir. Horace Jenkins

Losing Ground (1982) dir. Kathleen Collins

My Brother’s Wedding (1983) dir. Charles Burnett

Daughters of the Dust (1991) dir. Julie Dash

The Watermelon Woman (1996) dir. Cheryl Dunye

Down in the Delta (1998) dir. Maya Angelou

And When I Die, I Won’t Stay Dead (2015) dir. Billy Woodberry

Black Mother (2018) dir. Khalik Allah

fast messy little thing about teenage insecurity that I just wanted to scribble out cause it was on my mind for some reason. (be kind to people because you never know how your words might impact them!) To everyone else who’s ever hated their appearance (which let’s be real, is probably everyone reading this right now), I feel you. there’s good days and bad days but hopefully more good than bad. have a great night! best, Kat

Sorry to go off-book here

But here is a Google sheet of Covid-19 resources for undocumented folks, a population I’m tremendously worried about regarding all this. My sister-in-law, who works in domestic violence prevention and resources, shared this, so I trust it’s legit.

Spanish version the works, according to the sheet it should be up by 3/23.

My audience is tiny, so if some of y’all don’t mind sharing, I’d be grateful.
