Black Revivalist comes to Now Instant to showcase essential documentaries Robert Mugge's Black Wax, and Pratibha Parmar’s A Place of Rage, with readings from Walela Nehanda, Alyesha Wise, and Artist Shelley Bruce. 

Dubbed the forefather of rap and “the most dangerous musician alive” by Melody Maker, the late Gil Scott-Heron delivers incisive commentary while touring Washington, DC with his Midnight Band in Black Wax.

Pratibha Parmar’s film explores the intersection of racism, homophobia, and systemic oppression in the 1960s. Featuring interviews with Angela Davis, June Jordan, Trinh T. Minh-ha, and Alice Walker, it highlights the transformative impact of African American women during the civil rights movement.
