The Queen's Chair: QM's Suggested Top 50 Movies That Black Americans Should See (285 hits)

(QM's note: I have never kept it hidden that I am a movie buff. Just thought I'd share this list of films that I think are worthy of being seen. These movies were written, directed, produced or starred black performers. There is no ranking. With the holidays coming up, you may want to check these out.
