The Big Cigar review – proof that Hollywood can’t be trusted to tell the stories of Black radicals

https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/article/2024/may/17/the-big-cigar-review-huey-p-newton-black-panther-cuba

A timely review of a new film.

This is at least partially because of the FBI’s campaign of sabotage against 20th-century Black leaders, which was so ruthlessly effective that it remains near-impossible to separate the truth from deliberate distortions, or sort these threads into any kind of moral coherence.

#Women as spoils of #war at the end of #WWII #documentary.

In early 1945, at least 860,000 women & #girls in #Germany were #SexuallyAbused by #AlliedSoldiers. The #victims & children born after being raped, suffer #trauma to this day. Many stayed silent & took their stories to their graves.

This #film hears stories of some victims, talks to their children & grandchildren & #historians to reveal how the trauma has affected them.
