Description
Summary:In these two gripping documentaries, Academy Award winner Steve McQueen collaborates with some of the UK's most exciting factual filmmakers. Black Power is a searing account of how members of the British Black Power movement challenged racism in the 1960s. And Subnormal reveals how black children in the 1960s and '70s were routinely sent to schools for the educationally subnormal, and how parents, activists and teachers came together to fight this injustice. Powerful and timely, these three stories chart seismic events that helped shape modern society.
