I Am Not Your Negro

Director Raoul Peck
Cast Samuel L. Jackson

In 1979, author James Baldwin began a visionary project titled 'Remember This House', intended as a profound personal account of the lives and assassinations of his close friends Malcolm X, Medgar Evers, and Martin Luther King Jr. Though only thirty pages were completed at the time of his death, director Raoul Peck brings this unfinished work to the screen in a stirring documentary. Featuring the evocative narration of Samuel L. Jackson and powerful archival footage, the film offers a piercing meditation on race and identity in the United States, tracing the legacy of the civil rights movement and its resonance in contemporary society.
