Here, a very merry taxonomy of the 21st century’s best Black holiday movies. Jumoke Balogun & @MituYilma write trib.al/h6uEDIQ

A Very Merry Taxonomy of the Black Christmas Movie

✨ @MituYilma, Digital Director of the @BTWFoundation, talked to us about exploring the power of social media for good, some of the ways we should go deeper than politeness to be kind & what she thinks it takes to create real-world change. Read her Q&A at anthemawards.com/2021/06/22/…

Blk organizers were masterful tonight. Recruited white folks to hold the line on the interstate. Also gave them information about arrests and getting bailed out. Consent was honored and ppl were given alternative roles if they couldn’t risk arrest. #BrillianceInAction
