I have been watching these shows, movies, relevant to the ongoing movement on black lives matter. There is a lot to learn, a lot to understand, a lot to feel. As an Indian person, sitting in the UK, watching what’s happening in America, I can only say that I am not well apprised to put across the right words. I see the protests, I read the dialogues, I hear the enraged voices. What’s happening to black people doesn’t feel right. It appears to be wrong at a very basic level.
I have watched some really interesting things on Netflix so far:
– 13th
– When they see us
– 12 Years a slave
– What Happened, Miss Simone?
– Dear White People
– Sweet Karamo in the Queer Eye(this one is just to feel good)
Some things are too difficult to watch, but I think we need to see them even if it makes us uncomfortable. It’s the reality a large group of people have lived for so long. And we can’t put a blind eye on it.
A movement is on the uprising, and I wish the next decade is a wave of progressive change in our world.
I’d recommend Blackklansman & United Shades of America as well. Last Black Man in San Francisco is good too. & I’m hoping to finally watch Moonlight.
Well I haven’t yet watched your recommendations but I have watched Moonlight, and it is a treat. Would make a note of your suggestions! 🙂
Also Black-ish is my fav show starring mostly all black actors & comedians. Thank you for these recommendations in your post. It’s bloody scary hearing about all the injustice in the world rn, I feel only not being ignorant about it & learning from mistakes can help us all.
Well, baby steps in the right direction could always lead to something positive, eventually.
