Y’all are so stupid and antiblack. Sure we’re talking about a fictional franchise called Pirates of the CARIBBEAN but somehow people think there were no Black pirates. Never mind that Black Caesar, an actual Black man, served under Blackbeard of all people. Never mind that Queen Nanny of the Maroons was going around being a pirate and freeing slaves. Never mind the legend of Jacquotte Delahaye, who even though it is fiction has a literal book coming out about her, exists. Never mind the stories of Black pirates from the Americas, Europe, Africa, and the Caribbean existing. But sure. Let’s get mad at the potential fact that Ayo Edebiri might be leading the new start up of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise. Cuz Black pirates didn’t exist 🙄.

PAID THE COST TO BE THE BOSS | Black Caesar (1973) | Movie Review
Another fine entry in the Blaxploitation genre is 1973's "Black Caesar" starring Fred "The Hammer" Williamson at his most charismatic and written, produced and directed by Larry Cohen, one of the finest Exploitation Cinema directors of the 70's.
Add to that, a Soultastic score by the one and only James Brown and you got one hell of a Blaxploitation Gangster Movie set in Harlem.
Directed by Larry Cohen and starring Fred Williamson, Gloria Hendry, D'Urville Martin, Art Lund, Julius Harris and James Dixon.

«The Loop was bursting with exciting movies during Labor Day weekend 1978: Black Caesar and Cleopatra Jones at United Artists; Damien: Omen II and Slithis at Chicago; Grease at State-Lake; Death Dimension and Suspiria at Roosevelt. Plus, Piranha and Sting of the West at Woods. What would you have seen?»
