But the alphabet scene is always one of my favorite cinematic moments. I learned from the directors that Amina wanted the classroom scene cut at first because she said it didn’t represent her current viewpoint

Ten ✌🏾 @moeglii.bsky.social · 11d

It was interesting to see how Amina changed her ideology somewhat as she got older

Met the co-director when she owned the local drive thru theater in Newark. I miss those days.

Why Is We Americans?

2020

1hr 41min

From the Newark Rebellion of 1967 to current day, the city’s narrative has been one of revolution with each generation picking up where the previous had left off. WHY IS WE AMERICANS? weighs in on Newark’s struggle against oppression through the personal triumphs and tragedies of the Baraka family. Spanning decades of social activism, poetry, music, art, and politics, this kaleidoscopic family saga is framed by on-camera interviews with Ms. Lauryn Hill, rare archival footage and revealing personal testimonials. As we connect with the iconoclastic poet Amiri Baraka, his wife, Amina, and their son, Ras, a portrait of a city emerges with an inspiring call to arms in the fight for class and racial justice.
