BLACK AS U R

Co-presented by

Documentary filmmaker Micheal Rice explores the intersectional lives of Black queer people in America fighting for equality within their own family and community, striding for understanding and affirmation. BLACK AS U R brings to the forefront a conversation whispered and often silenced within the Black spaces for generations. Unspoken fear and misunderstanding of Black queerness have catalyzed mental and physical violence against a subset of the African American community who have largely been the leaders in cultural expansion and the fight against racial injustice in America.
