New Year & A New Review Attitude!

Happy new year to you all!

Thanks to all the supporters and local chit chatters who are pumping Black Film Review of Memphis. We are excited about the new slate of reviews we plan to post each week.  We believe there are great Black films to be seen that represent the diverseness and nuances of Black people from around the world.  And then, there are others that need to die in the same box their straight-to-DVD existence was shipped in.

Black Film Review of Memphis is a film club that is justifiably sadity about the films we critique because we are serious about our Black representation. The last thing we need are shucking and jiving Black folks on film literally shucking corn and jiving to a beat.  Do filmmakers really need to beat us over the head for us to "get it"?  Our film club toes the lines on the long-standing Alain Locke vs. WEB DuBois debate.

As we continue to grow and give you the reviews about the films for us, by us, and about us, we hope you will share the good news with friends.  Follow us on Facebook and follow me on Twitter @melohello!
