Introduction by Yasmina Price

 
The KKK Boutique ain't Just Rednecks (1994)

Dirs. Camille Billops & James Hatch, 60min, DCP

 

A satirical and unflinching exploration of the many facets of contemporary racism, Billops and Hatch explore the many ways Americans have created, ignored, tolerated, participated in, and propagated racial prejudice. Told in a series of irreverent, campy skits offset by personal interviews and statements, the filmmakers offer a surreal corollary to Dante’s journey through hell in the Inferno with themselves as guides.

 
Take Your Bags (1998)

Dirs. Camille Billops & James Hatch, 11min, DCP

 

Billops’ examination of slavery and cultural theft traces the loss of cultural memory from enslaved Africans to their descendents, who confront images of their stolen artistry in the works of Picasso, Matisse, and others on the walls of modern art museums.
