Another View - "Blacks in Film: Is Hollywood Getting the Message?"

After two years of no recognition at all, this year's Oscar Ceremony recognized the talents of six black actors. And let's not forget the impactful films like: "Fences," "Hidden Figures" and "Moonlight," that told powerful stories of Black life in America. African Americans were also recognized for producing and directing. Does all this mean that Hollywood is finally getting the message that Black stories really do matter? Have the tables finally turned for Black Actors and Black Films? On the Next Another View, join guest host, Lisa Godley; actor, DeForest Mapp; film critic, Mike Sargent and film student Kenley Duke as they explore Blacks in film and their future in Hollywood. Plus, later on we'll be joined by cast members from the Virginia Stage Company's production of "The Wiz." Join us for the next Another View, Friday, April 7th a Noon on 89.5 WHRV-FM, on Facebook at www.facebook.com/WHROPublicMedia or live on this blog!
