James Baldwin Selection

  • January 26, 2017 / 19:00

“One of the dangers of being a Black American is being schizophrenic.”

Pink Life Kuir Fest is saluting writer and intellectual James Baldwin with a special selection. This selection consists of three short films: Horace Ové’s 1968 documentary Baldwin’s Nigger, James Baldwin: From Another Place, a 1973 documentary filmed by Sedat Pakay who passed away last summer and Off-White Tulips by Aykan Safoğlu.

Click here to take a look at the selection.

Three figures in Eastern dress are shown in repose against an exotic landscape, smoking pipes and playing mangala. Inventories of the royal collections from 1739 identify the members of this group as the royal eunuch Matthias and two odalisques.
