*Viewers Choice* Blaxploitation & Chill: The Origins of Black Cinema

Welcome back to The & Chill Podcast! In this episode, "Blaxploitation & Chill," I'm diving deep into the cultural impact and legacy of Blaxploitation films. I'm getting real about how these groundbreaking movies from the 1970s shaped Black cinema and continue to influence modern entertainment. From their revolutionary representation to their complex legacy, we're unpacking it all. I'm also exploring how the genre never really ended thanks to the continued filmmaking of trailblazers like Spike Lee and the Wayans Family!
