Inspired by the book from historian Donald Bogle, this four-part docuseries, directed by Justin Simien, chronicles a century of the Black experience in Hollywood. By unearthing personal stories from actors, writers, directors, and producers who fought for their place on the page, behind the camera, and on the screen, the series provides a critical reexamination of a quintessentially American story—in brilliant color.

After the Screening: A conversation with director and executive producer Justin Simien, Lena Waithe, and Donald Bogle, moderated by Aramide Tinubu.
