This week we take a moment to highlight the overlooked history of Black actors in Hollywood, from Hattie McDaniel’s groundbreaking Oscar win to Stepin Fetchit’s complicated legacy. Then, we dive into Green Book, a biographical drama following pianist Don Shirley and his unlikely bond with driver Tony Vallelonga as they navigate racism in the Jim Crow South. Through clashes and lessons, their journey explores the power of connection and the possibility of change.
Thank you for listening!
