The Black Power Mixtape 1967-75

The Black Power Mixtape examines the evolution of the Black Power Movement
in the black community and Diaspora from 1967 to 1975. The film combines music,
startling 16mm footage (lying undiscovered in the cellar of Swedish Television for 30 years), 
and contemporary audio interviews from leading African-American artists, activists, 
musicians and scholars.
