I am not your Negro

"Why was it necessary to have a nigger in the first place? I am not a nigger. I am a man. When I´m not a nigger, and you, the white people, invented him, you got to find out why!"

I am not your Negro is a documentary made by Raoul Peck, based on notes of James Baldwin.

James Baldwin was a friend of Marthin Luther King, Medgar Evers, and Malcolm X. The film makes a link from the human rights movement of the 1950´s to the black-lives-matter movement of today.
