Master filmmaker Raoul Peck envisions the book James Baldwin never finished, Remember This House. 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 #BlackLivesMatter. It is a film that questions black representation in Hollywood and beyond. And, ultimately, by confronting the deeper connections between the lives and assassination of Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr., Baldwin and Peck have produced a work that challenges the very definition of what America stands for.
Working from the text of James Baldwin’s unfinished final novel, director Raoul Peck creates a meditation on what it means to be Black in the United States.

History of black Americans is the history of AmericaWhite prosperity was built on the murder of indeginous people and on the labor of blak slaves. I live in Europe now but I hope one day America can face it's past and the suffering of its people. Until that time race will remain an open wound. Whiltes will continue to fear blacks because they know they have done wrong without making ammends. In addition to the black story there are fascinating insights into the violence of America, the propoganda of enertainment and other themes..Score: 5/5

A Necessary and Poignant ExperienceThe irony and sadness of the truths expressed by Baldwin in this docu-experience is palpable. Understanding the nuance of his perspective; a raw history and experience of being Black in America is important and resonants today because Baldwin was unafraid to tackle subject matter and ask to questions that turns the mirror on the proverbial monster that still premeates systemically in this country. "Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced." Truer words, indeed, Mr. Baldwin. He was the hero that others wouldn't allow themselves to be..Score: 5/5

James Baldwin: A Truth Teller? Yes or No?Google: James Baldwin /NY Times Op-Ed/Antisemitism I got into James Baldwin a few years ago in 2017. He had an amazing debate against James Buckley, a staunch intellectual for the conservative movement. About a year ago, via a podcast, it pointed out his NY Times Op-Ed on Antisemitism with the title “Negro’s are antisemitic because they’re anti-white” Not my words, but James Baldwin himself. Are Black Americans antisemitic? Are Black Americans anti-white? Hmmmm….. James Baldwin apparently thinks so.Score: 4/5
Great movieSome people say “same song and dance”... Well, that’s exactly what this is about. Equality and treatment. It’ll always be the “same song and dance” when the same music is playing. Awesome look into a well-spoken, thoughtful man. 5 Stars..Score: 5/5
