Between the World and Me (TV Special 2020)

Between the World and Me: Directed by Kamilah Forbes. With Mahershala Ali, Angela Bassett, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Angela Davis. The special will include powerful readings from Ta-Nehisi Coates’ book, it will also incorporate documentary footage from the actors’ home life, archival footage, and animation.

“Who would have thought that a book reading could move so much. This TV special showcases hightlights from the book Between the world and me by using todays finest black voices. The use of personal footage, historical footage and animation have turned the whole into a piece of art. A piece of art that cannot be missed. The story and language used by Ta-nehisi Coates is personal, poetic and literature at itu0026#39;s finest. I recommend this to anyone who loves books and is interested in the civil rights/BLM-movement.”
