Review
Lets James Baldwin's searing work soar . . . you will be astounded by the brilliance of his polemic -- Geoffrey Macnab ― Independent
A striking work of storytelling . . . One of the best movies about the civil rights era ever made . . . This might be the only movie about race relations that adequately explains with sympathy the root causes ― Guardian
Thrilling. . . . A portrait of one man's confrontation with a country that, murder by murder, as he once put it, devastated my universe ― New York Times
Baldwin's voice speaks even more powerfully today . . . the prose-poet of our injustice and inhumanity . . . The times have caught up with his scalding eloquence ― Variety

I Am Not Your Negro turns James Baldwin into a prophet
― Rolling StoneAbout the Author
Born in Harlem in 1924, James Baldwin was a novelist, essayist, playwright, poet, social critic, and the author of more than twenty books. His first novel, Go Tell It on the Mountain, appeared in 1953 to excellent reviews, and his essay collection The Fire Next Time was a bestseller that made him an influential figure in the civil rights movement. Baldwin spent many years in France, where he moved to escape the racism and homophobia of the United States. He died in 1987.
Raoul Peck is a filmmaker acclaimed for his historical, political, and artistic work. Born in Haiti, he grew up in Congo, France, Germany, and the United States. He is currently chairman of the French national film school, La Fémis.

Very much needed at this time
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 August 2020Verified Purchase
With all going on in the USA right now (re- police profiling and killing of black people) and the resulting worldwide movement that have sprung and gained momentum, this book sheds some light that will help people have the necessary conversations around race. Evil continues because good people remain silent! Black, brown, white, red, whatever colour (shouldn’t really be saying this as we’re the human race and shouldn’t be defined by colour) , get yourselves some books on the subject.

This book is basically the notes, essays, letters etc etc that James Baldwin had planned to pull together for his book 'Remember this House' which remained unfinished at the time of his death.
These notes where then pulled together by Raoul Peck and resulted in the I Am Not Your Negro documentary.
It's a very quick read, for me I would prefer to watch the documentary, and I will do, however it did slightly build upon the Martin Luther King / Malcom X book that I read last year so it was worthwhile.

A good introduction to this author
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 January 2020Verified Purchase
The author states he loved John Wayne films when he was young; until, that is, he realised he was the Indians. It’s a different perspective on life & America, from a black man’s point of view. It’s a short easy read & so a great introduction to this author, as recommended to me by someone on Twitter. Recommended.

The format is notes.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 September 2018Verified Purchase
It was an interesting read, and highlights issues that sadly are still significant today. Some people still judge others by skin colour and not by the thoughts they think or how they feel.

Baldwin speaks from the grave - and his voice is as poignant and vital as ever
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 October 2017Verified Purchase
This seamless, gorgeous compilation of Baldwin's notes in preparation for Remember This House - a book, tragically, he never finished - is an essential companion to the painstaking documentary of the same name. A vital insight into an America of the past, the present and the future.
