Excellent job putting together this important and much needed documentary. The Black Arts ovement was such a creatively rich period in world history. The recently published book, TRYIN TIMES from the Pyramids to the Projects was born out of this very powerful movement. Below is a poem from the book. (avil/Amazon) REPARATIONS Stop interfering with our way... Can the one that destroys, ever really repair? Do we have it within us to repair ourselves or have we been so destroyed, there is no hope and the God has to settle this? Niggas been crying for reparations for the longest... Will The ones whose economy that is built on free labor now construct a new way, and tear down the old? Can the one who's education is constructed on half truths and lies, now be humble and honest? Can the nature of the beast, who has perpetuated endless horrors, now change its nature and start doing good? Have we've been so fooled into thinking it's appropriate to put a Band-Aid on a gushing wound? Reparations... ask the native Americans and the Indigenous people all over our planet, about how reparations are working for them.

A few times in the mid-60s, Ruby Dee and Ossie Davis used to visit my grandparent's best friends in Montclair to eat BBQ, laugh, and have fun....they were elegant, eloquent, and unforgettable...
