Unapologetic Black activists: 'If movements don't tell our own stories, somebody else will'
In the month that both Judas and the Black Messiah and The Trial of the Chicago 7 have racked up multiple Oscar nominations, it’s another film, one well outside the Hollywood awards circuit, that’s bringing us up to date on the struggle for Black liberation.

Director Ashley O’Shay was herself just 22 and fresh out of film school when she moved to the city and began filming: “Like, if you were in Chicago in the fall of 2015, you must have been living under a rock if you were not aware of what young, Black folks were doing.”Read Full StoryBlack PeopleChicago MayorRacial InjusticeMoviesActivismQueer StoriesQueer FilmBlack HistorySocial MovementsBlack Youth ProjectO'ShayGambrellChicago PDBoratUnapologetic ChallengesRahm EmanuelFred Hampton
