The New Black Film Canon
NPR has teamed up with Slate to expand the Black Film Canon, a collection of the best films directed by Black filmmakers.

In this episode, we're picking a few of our favorite additions, and you can check out the full list of 75 movies here.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
