I Am Not Your Negro Documentary

I AM NOT YOUR NEGRO PosterAt the time of James Baldwin’s death in 1987, he left behind only thirty completed pages of his manuscript for I Am Not Your Negro. Now, in his new documentary, filmmaker Raoul Peck (Lumumba, Sometimes in April) envisions the book James Baldwin never finished. The result is a radical, up-to-the-minute examination of race in America, using Baldwin’s original words and flood of rich archival material. I Am Not Your Negro is a journey into black history that connects the past of the Civil Rights movement to the present of Black Lives Matter.
