Horror movie buffs: Are you looking for a good scare? ‘Tis the season for screaming! Or was that streaming?
Kanopy’s Fright Fest! has some of the most bone-chilling characters and memorable monsters to ever appear on screen. This thrilling collection is sure to provide plenty fiendish surprises and all of the heart-pounding moments any true fan of the genre craves.
For Black History Month 2021, Kanopy has featured "11 Films to Watch." These included important films like Oscar-winner Moonlight, The Last Black Man in San Francisco, Maya Angelou: And Still I Rise, and Oscar-nominated documentary I Am Not Your Negro. Black history shouldn't be confined to just one month. So, even if you're starting late or you missed the celebration entirely, rest easy. There's really no deadline on this list. They are, however, a great addition to #theblackfriendchallenge and any other self-education you may be doing on anti-racism and social justice.
