October is Black Movie Month - Support Black Cinema.

I have been a long time advocate for films that express diversity; in front of and behind the camera. We can claim our own victories if not one step at a time...
Support Black Cinema,

Black Movie Month
Support Black Movie Month
Please support Film Life, Inc's. partnership with Black Enterprise and Uptown Magazine. They will launch an online public awareness campaign to rally global audiences in support of Black Cinema.

Its purpose is to celebrate and heighten awareness of films made for, by and about persons of African descent, and stimulate sales of Black movies across varied platforms, demonstrating the economic viability and influence of Black audiences.

The site will have six calls to action along with a media player where consumers can send in their thoughts and feeling on why Black Movie Month is important, as well as sign a petition in support of Black films that will be sent to the major film studios in Hollywood.

They are looking to get at least 200,000 signatures in support of this initiative.
