In this extended episode Black female educator, librarian, and my friend Janet Damon examine the classic and controversial film The Color Purple. We discuss the implied and explicit themes of the book including the legacy of slavery, sexual abuse and sexually liberation, plus the cast, the social impact of the film and much, much more! I apologize for the poor sound quality of my mic in the first half of the show. Hopefully the conversation is engaging enough to make up for it. Also, I added audio clips from the movie to the show to remind you of some of the most iconic and favorite scene! The link for the video to new movies that Janet mentioned is https://t.co/0qdVHwe5B9.

Inaugural episode of The BlackFlix podcast. My special guest host is also my daughter and we discuss Disney's The Princess and the Frog. Is this Disney's first (and only) animated Black movie or is it just another Princess in distress with I'm Blackface? We examine whether or not this movie is "Black" or not and why or why not. We talk about some of the social and cinematic themes, the cast, and the soundtrack and how this film qualifies as Black...or does it?
