The Acting Black Blogathon: Day 1 Recap


Day 1 of the Acting Black Blogathon is in the books, and I must say it was a rousing success. I read a number of great posts that gave me lots of insight into some of the great work done by black actors throughout cinematic history. Here are yesterday's entries:




Thanks to everyone who contributed!

Hopefully, as you're clicking through these, more great posts are going up today. I'll be back tomorrow to let you know what those were.

  5. Darn it! I still need to get on this one. I finally finished that stupid paper but finding time to just watch something has proven more difficult than you'd think. I was finally getting my act together last month but now there's a lot going on in my life that's making it difficult.
