Black Family: A Place Of Our Own 60 mins
Produced by Stanley Nelson
Price: $3.99
In this cinematic love song to place and identity, director Stanley Nelson explores the rarely seen world of the black middle class and the town of Oak Bluffs on Martha's Vineyard, where African Americans have vacationed for generations. Using wonderfully evocative photography and landscape cinematography, Nelson lets us into a side of black identity rarely incorporated into the larger lore of Americana. Through intimate interviews in gloriously manicured surroundings, Nelson relives his family's ties to the Vineyard, taking us along for a very satisfying trip down memory lane.
