'Daughters of the Dust' and the Gullah Culture (Black History Stories) - EPISODE 113

“I am the first and the last."

It's Black History Month and we're celebrating by watching films that talk about the history of the African-American people. This month we're focusing on "Black History Stories" and we're starting it off with Julie Dash's 'Daughters of the Dust'. Winner of the Cinematography Award at the Sundance Film Festival, this is a beautiful movie that happens to be the first feature film directed by an African-American woman distributed theatrically in the United States.

So who are the Gullah people and how well did this movie reflect their culture? How did the non-linear storyline work for us? All of that, pair this up with our selections at the Adam Driver Drive-In Double Feature (shout out Beyoncé)!
