Black History Year

How a Village Beat White Supremacy—Lessons from "Bacurau" with The Micheaux Mission


Listen Later

If you loved Sinners, you'll wanna tune in. This week on Black History Year, we're asking, "What happens when a whole town decides the map no longer defines them—and then proves it?"

On this special crossover episode with the film-fanatics at The Micheaux Mission, host Darren is cracking open the must-see Afro-Brazilian thriller "Bacurau" (2019). Part Western, part sci-fi, part anti-colonial manifesto (YES, that), they explore how collective audacity can turn survival into revolution—and why this genre-busting film might be a blueprint to getting real, trill freedom.


Be sure to find Len Webb and Vincent Williams of The Micheaux Mission at https://www.micheauxmission.com/. New episodes of their podcast go LIVE every Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET. You can also find it on YouTube @micheauxmission.
