“Singer” Ryan Kogler is a black history written with lightning
The Trump administration declared war on black history.
Through executive requests, the administration took the target of Dei’s initiatives, but the Black History is studying in The classroom Throughout the country and in Smithsonian National Museum of American -African History and Culture. These executive orders, along with the threat of federal financing, are committed to compliance with the education community, which is harmful to Americans from all ethnic groups.
Fortunately, our community has a different kind of teachers – those whose unique talent brings black history to life in the movie, teachers like Ryan Coogler.
Last weekend was the issue of its latest project, “Singer“ Horror film vampire in the Mississippi Delta in 1932. “Singer” He appeared for the first time in the box office, with $ 48 million locally, The highest opening For an original film released so far this contract. He also received a file register 98 % review films result from spoiled tomatoes.
Kogerer’s use of history is a weapon for people against the fascism and materials of the Trump administration.
At the end of last week, “sinners” take In $ 45 million, with a total of $ 122.5 million in North America and 161.6 million dollars worldwide since its release 11 days ago.
The success of the weekend for “sinners” shows that vampire shows on cinema (and television) are still common among consumer fans of films and television. It also proves that films that feature black actors often can dominate a large weekend of box office, such as “Black Panther” (directed by Coogler) and “Come to America”. Stars such as Will Smith, Denzel Washington and Jimmy Fox have already shown that the black lead in a movie can dominate the weekend. “Singer” proves that black history is not a sin and that black history teachers are not sinners. In fact, “sinners” are unusual, black history in a conspiracy, and viewers responded to the box office $ 48 million.
Michael B. Jordan as a smoke and a stack in “sin” (compliment Warner Bruce photos). The Trump administration does not simply look at the history of lions as the enemy Choose their pockets In order to unify power. History erasure Jackie Robinson Military service or rewriting a date Harriet Tobman The purpose of saving African prisoners to enslave not only the whitening of black history, but it raises the anger of American -African society (right) so that anger can be manipulated to persuade Trump’s base to allow Trump to take revenge for them through his decisions, as it dismantles the rights, freedoms and rule of citizens and institutions. This (MIS) is the use of black history is its weapon against the people, while the use of Mr. Coogler of History is a weapon for people against fascism in the Trump administration and their materials.
Honestly, Mr. Koger has a history of doing this.

At “Fruitvale”, Mr. Coogler exposed viewers to a picture of the black male humanity to the image showed by the altarized power structure on the death of the Black Males. In the “Black Panther” privilege, Mr. Coogler bowed on the historical memory of displaying innovation, beauty, majesty and competition for African people, and facing stereotypes engraved in the minds of the masses of these Sally Strosts “Children” commercial ads. In “Creed”, Mr. Kogerer not only explored the complications of black identity, but also spoiled life in the life of Hollywood, or is considered only a perforated bag of great white hope, which was Rocky Balboa, Apollo Credit.
The power and the heavy nature of the black music presented in “sinners” is a reminder that black history did not start with our enslavement, but with our majestic and powerful civilizations in Africa, and while we freed ourselves from our enslavement.
In “Singer”, Mr. Kogler takes viewers on a trip to the Mississippi Delta to introduce them to Jim Crow South facts; From Klan in ordinary clothes to Chinese who offer black and eggs from the other aspects of the streets in separate stores. Mr. Coogler also offers viewers to Blues Assets. Literary giant Amiri Parka, in his book People Blues“Blues music explains as follows:
“Original American music, the product of the black man in this country … The Blues was music that originated from the needs of a group … singing to relieve their workers or informal expression of personal deliberations on the world … There was no existing blouse if the African prisoners did not become American masters.”
Wuni mosaku as if I am in “sinners” (compliment Warner Bruce Photo). African prisoners who turned American prisoners have often remained when society moved from slavery to Jim Crowe. An example of this was the Delroy Lindo, a big statesman in The Blues, who was also an example of a black man who needed Blues music to relieve his workers. For Slim, the sweeping gorge has gained corn to form his pain. But the Blues did the same when it was absent to the ability to reduce itself. Slim carries the essence of this fact as it amazes through feelings of anger, pain and despair to achieve a level of venting as he tells the story of a friend who has been executed. With this introduction to Blues, Mr. Kogler revealed how Protestant ethics The African Americans put a struggle within the lions of the lions to accept that music is the tool that announces our secular conflicts with the announcement of our spiritual matches at the same time, to secure our humanity – through the struggle of the father of the preacher and the Blues that plays its role.
Mr. Coogler continues its black history in the teaching of Masterclass by bridging the gaps between the past, the present and the future in the distinctive plot of the film. It displays viewers to black music rates from Africa to America: from a tribal dance to the fenk grooves that pay the hip -hop. Sammie photos, electric guitar player, DJ, MC’s, Crip Walkers, Twerkers [twerking has its origins in African dance]And Zoli dancers Providing viewers with a path of black music over time in 90 seconds better than the documentary.
The scene, which is taking place in the Stack and Smoke joint, was borrowing from Don Cornellius– The most HIPP trip in America (N) – History. It is, undoubtedly, a wonderful artistic moment that provides a lesson that cannot simply. It occurs inside the jook joint is not a coincidence.
Jook Consist or Jooks, similar to Tonky-Tonks or post-hours joints, according to Dr. Katrina Hazard Donald (university student professor), was the first secular cultural institution for social interaction, entertainment and semi-new activity to appear after the ruling. Explain more in her book “Jookin::
“Their appearance was initially associated with African American life, and they appeared as soon as the black population became important in both the north and the soldiers … and like the Blues, Jook was a secular institution rooted in the traditions of West Africa that intertwine between religious and secular elements.”
The category of peasants was African Americans from Langiston Hughes It is called low people’s affection:
“People who have Gain on Saturday nights are not very important for themselves or society, or feed well, or learned to watch the lazy world revolve around them. They live on the seventh street in Washington or Street in Chicago, and they do not care especially whether they are like white people or any other person.”
Listing black stories did not need to verify white health.
The power and the heavy nature of the black music displayed in “sinners” is a reminder that black history did not start with our enslavement, but with our majestic and powerful civilizations in Africa, and because we are deprived of ourselves of our enslavement, we will also free from white excellence. Therefore, it should not be a surprise that dirt was thrown into the movie in Addresses On Social media.
It may be said that racism has nothing to do with these “criticisms.” I wonder if Ben Steller He can change such feelings with his ideas.
The movie may be very black and has a lot of black history. Perhaps there is a fear of Mr. Kogler deal To preserve the rights of his movie after twenty -five years. Regardless of the causes of dirt, sales numbers cannot, while the scale of success cannot tell the overall effect of any piece of art. This is the mistake he made when comparing the commercial success of Drake and Kindrik Lamar in measuring the effect.
Drake may have the numbers on Lamar, but as Kendrick told Drake in “trance“I don’t feel culture.”
In the same way, we should not expect the Trump administration to explain the black history properly or important in the general square; We should not expect critics who participate in the racist anti -black racism properly the influence of “sinners”, not to mention the interpretation of black culture. If “sinners” win Oscar or Golden Globe, wonderful. It is well worth. Just know that listing black stories did not need to verify white health.
Still not.
“Singer” of Rayan Kogerer is a horror story where the white superiority is Dracula and that it is spawned to come to black terror. There will be a lot of pieces that you think about exploring the deeper meanings of the symbolism in this movie. But Mr. Kogler’s choice to allow black history to frame a vampire movie that gives viewers and critics enough to think, write and use as a basis for learning in the future.
This is not what was in the mind of the Trump administration for the weekend at Easter.
