Audio Collage: What’s next up for cinema centering Black people?

from Cup of Tea Critiques Podcast · host COTC Team

How do you remember studying history during Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Black History Month? Let me guess, memorizing names and facts. Boring! They can have value, though; so, let me add one more. Did you know that Black History Month began as a one-week nod to Frederick Douglass’s and Abraham Lincoln’s birthdays? In this episode, rather than regurgitating facts, we consider how Martin Luther King Jr.’s assertion that everyone has the right to live with dignity is weaved into contemporary cinema. We also share our own dreams for future stories that normalize the humanity of Black people and continue to push Black representations forward.Send us a comment to let us know how you are planning to celebrate Black history this year. For future updates, subscribe to our podcast wherever you listen, and for email updates on all things COTC, subscribe to our website using the link below:https://www.cupofteacritiques.com/subscribe Black Film Wire. https://www.blackfilmwire.com/.“Black Movie Hall of Fame set to open in 2026 at Boone Theater in Kansas City.” FOX4 News Kansas City. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEkQZZyGTxQ.Havens, Rhys. “25 Inspirational Martin Luther King, Jr. Quotes.” Unexpected (November 20 2024). https://unexpectedvirtualtours.com/resources/mlk-inspirational-quotes/.Jean-Gilles, Vladimir. “Black Movie Hall of Fame to be Inaugurated in Kansas City in 2026.” Shifter (October 21 2025). https://shiftermagazine.com/film-and-tv/black-movie-hall-of-fame. #cupofteareviews, #filmreviews, #indiefilm, #cinephilecommunity, #movielover, #instamovies, #ilovecinema, #instafilm, #ilovemovies, #movienight, #movieworld, #moviefan, #moviefans, #filmfan, #filmfans, #instacinema, #movie, #movies, #film, #films, #filmisnotdead, #favoritemovie, #nowwatching, #moviereview, #teatime, #movietime, #mlk, #martinlutherkingjrday, #martinlutherking, #martinlutherkingquotes, #blackhistory, #blackhistorymonth, #blackhistorymatters, #blackpanther, #selma, #boomerang, #superbad Send us Fan MailSUBSCRIBEFooterWe hope you enjoyed listening as much as we enjoyed sharing.
