The Black and the Green


How do we build solidarity across regions? This St. Clair Bourne directed documentary explores the influence of Black American Civil Rights Movement on Ireland as a group of Black activists seek to understand the plight of Ireland’s fight for Catholic independence struggle beyond sanitized headlines. PBS, the broadcaster of the film, originally deemed the 1983 work objectionable and delayed its initial premiere.
