I Am Not Your Negro. 2016. Directed by Raoul Peck
95 min.

Raoul Peck’s 2016 film envisions James Baldwin’s unfinished project “Remember This House,” a proposal to his literary agent that was to be a revolutionary, personal account of the lives and assassinations of three of his close friends: Medgar Evers, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King, Jr. At the time of Baldwin’s death in 1987, he left behind only 30 completed pages of this manuscript.
