African American Film Critics Association (AAFCA) president Gil Robertson moderates a roundtable with AAFCA members Lisa Kennedy, Ronda Racha Penrice, and Ed Adams to discuss classic Black films from the Sony Pictures catalog. These three AAFCA critics reviewed nine classic films, which are important to cinematic history and encouraged important dialogue about race in theaters and homes across America and across the world.
Sony Pictures Action is a multi-pronged racial equity and inclusion initiative from Sony Pictures Entertainment. We encourage audiences to donate to the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund as part of our ongoing efforts. Please see the donate button attached to this video.
