The Black Femme Supremacy Film Festival Announces Virtual Extension
This year's festival explores legacies of beauty, Black magic, anger and WAP.
In a year like 2020, we have to grasp joy wherever we can, and for many moviegoers, joy cometh in the form of virtual film festivals. Of course, 2020 is also the year of the Black Uprising and, in addition to grasping at joy, we all have a responsibility to support various forms of Black resistance, including but not limited to supporting, celebrating and witnessing creative works by Black artists. Nia Hampton has been doing such work for years, as the creator and organizer of the Black Femme Supremacy Film Festival, described as “a grassroots endeavor to connect Black Femmes throughout the African diaspora through the medium of film.” With support from Seed&Spark, Ava DuVernay’s ARRAY and additional funding, the festival is fully virtual this year. The festival began last Friday, but after a strong audience response it has been extended through this weekend. Check out the press release below, and get your tickets here.
