Afro Movie Review
by AMR Pod
The movie reviews of the past have more times than not been from the perspective of white and male critics; it’s time to diversify. Join us, queer movie enthusiasts Mo (she/her) and Keekz (they/them), as we critique films across genres, eras, languages and cultures, with a dash of history for reference and perspective. This is Afro Movie Review, the podcast. Come talk sh*t with us.
