Many African Americans were outraged by racist, stereotypical Hollywood films such as The Birth of a Nation (1915), which led to the rise of Race Films. Race Films were movies mainly made by and featuring African Americans. These films were a counter-cinema to the racist portrayals of Black people that were made by white producers. Instead, these films provided honest portrayals and positive messages about the African American community. These films laid the groundwork and would leave a lasting impression on the future of Black Cinema and showcased a lot of Black talent. Oscar Micheaux is widely regarded as the face of the Race Films era because of his extensive line of movies. He is regarded as one of the pioneering filmmakers of early Black Cinema. His most notable works include Within Our Gates (1920) and Body and Soul (1925). Within Our Gates is a film that portrays the years of Jim Crow, the Ku Klux Klan, and the Great Migration. Micheaux created 44 films total with many of them challenging racist stereotypes. We do not own the rights to any of this film. This film is being used for historical and educational purposes only.
