Göran Hugo Olsson’s 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.
It’s on in London this weekend at Curzon Soho on Shaftesbury Avenue. Interested? You can see the trailer here.

The Ribéry Pink Panther ad – a wonderful idea featuring a wonderful player (trust me, Bayern are pretty dicey without him). They’ll have a job on their hands convincing the average Sunday league player that he should wear pink footwear, but hey, full credit to them for trying.
