As Black History Month wraps up, we’re celebrating our favorite films featuring Black actors, writers and directors we can’t get enough of. Some of the films are mainstream Hollywood but it’s also the B movies and blacksploitation films that hold a special place in our hearts.
Today comedian Rachel Hall, creator and host of the Hood Novel Book Club Podcast, joins us to celebrate the Black films we love.
Listen as we chat about films like the Wiz, the movie adaptation of Charlie Small’s Broadway musical that features a grown up Diana Ross playing a little girl.
