Several films that feature a cast of predominantly black actors — many of which were directed by black filmmakers — are available to rent for free (some are in 4K, too) through many streaming services, including iTunes, Google Play, Vudu, FandangoNow, and YouTube. This promotion comes amid recent Black Lives Matter protests taking place all over the world seeking justice for the killing of George Floyd by police in Minnesota, as well as an end to racial inequality and police brutality against black people.
If you’re going to make time to watch a movie, consider one of these. The spread of genres means there’s something for everyone, and each is an important story that, in their own ways, highlights the systemic and institutionalized racism against black people that continues to exist all over the US.
