The Black Film Archive is a new site about Black Films from 1915-1979 that are streaming. It’s excellent and very comprehensive.
some news: today, i’m excited to launch https://t.co/lznpLOtC9b. this ever-expanding black film archive provides history and context to over 200 black films made from 1915 to 1979 currently streaming.

“If my whole intention was to do this with the community in mind … then there’s the even greater question: Are they ready for this and are they ready for what it could become?” — @mayascade

Wow, I'd never seen this site. If you ever wanted to see the Jackie Robinson movie from 1950 in which Robinson plays himself, check it out here. https://t.co/p7y9PJGQQT
