In a deeply personal commemoration of Black History Month 2018, i discussed two very important films that were screened at the Globale Film Festival taking place from the 26th January to the 10th of February 2018. “Whose Streets” is an intimate account of the Ferguson Protest after the brutal murder of #MikeBrown. “I am Not Your Negro” a candid celebration of Lorraine Hainsberry, Dr. Martin Luther King, Malcom X and Medgar Evers. I was there to have conversations and facilitate a discussion on these two extraordinary Documentaries.
