Our suggestions
In a collection of interviews with some of America’s most provocative black conservative thinkers, Uncle Tom takes a different look at being black in America. Featuring media personalities, civil rights activists, veterans, etc., the film explores their personal journeys of navigating the world as one of America’s most misunderstood political and cultural groups: The American Black Conservative. Uncle Tom examines self-empowerment and rejecting the victim narrative and shows us a different perspective of American History.
"Through interviews with provocative personalities - ranging from media representatives, ministers, civil rights activists, veterans and more - this documentary paints a unique look at what it is like to be black in the United States. The production was certainly designed for whites, already assuming that even the director is not black, which already sends the message that it is a white vision of this topic. Despite this, 'Uncle Tom' manages to be a revealing, informative and well-executed film, giving space for different people to share their experiences."
