Black Power Mixtape: 1967-1975, 2011, Sweden
\nA film by G\u00f6ran Hugo Olsson<\/p>\n

45 Min Panel DIscussion After the film.<\/p>\n

At the end of the Sixties and into the early Seventies, European interest in the US Civil Rights Movement and the US anti-war movement peaked. With a combination of commitment and naivet?, Swedish filmmakers traveled across the Atlantic to explore the Black Power Movement, which was being alternately ignored or portrayed in the US media as a violent, nascent terrorist movement.<\/p>\n

Despite the obstacles they were confronted with, both from the conservative white American power establishment and from radicalized Movement members themselves, the Swedish filmmakers did not cease their investigation and ultimately formed bonds with key figures in the Movement, based on their common objective of realizing equal rights for all. In the Black Power Mixtape filmmaker G?ran Olsson brings this newly discovered footage to light and introduces it to a new generation across the world in a penetrating examination \u2013 through the lens of Swedish filmmakers \u2013 of the Black Power Movement from 1967-75, and its worldwide resonance.
