Postcolonial Cinema   –  Critical Perspectives  –  Discussion Event

24.11.2023: Post Colonial Cinema: Judas and the Black Messiah

It`s not a question of violence or non violence.
It`s a question of resistance to fascism, or non
existence within fascism.” Fred Hampton

 

Based on an online lecture, the event introduced a critical point of view

towards the predominant negative presentation and misinterpretation of

Black History.Same way, the lecture highlighted important facts about

the origins and political motivation of the # BLM movement, in order to

open up a discussion event and provide references to tackle racism and

disinformation targeting BIPOC`s (Black, Indigenous and People of color).

Well received by the majority of viewers, main criticism remains:

IT`S A MOVIE ABOUT AN INFORMANT. The history of Fred Hampton

and the Black Panther Party is secondary. Main focus remains the per –

sonality of O`Neil ! Black History and the major statements about collec-

tive emancipation are secondary.

 

It was shot beautifully [ … ] the acting was amazing.

But it`s a movie about an informant. Fred is secondary

and radical communist politics are not centered at all.
