For 'Mr. Scorsese,' faith — like cinema — is unfinished business "Mr. Scorsese," Rebecca Miller's five-part documentary out now on Apple TV+, traces the famed director's career exploration of blasphemy and salvation, devotion and rejection, sin and grace.

Thanks to my incredible editor Shannon as always <3 @ncronline.bsky.social

We had our second to last session with the current cohort of the BIPOC Critics Lab. Any assigning editors out there in film, TV, music, and theatre, this is the most brilliant group of people I've trained yet, so keep an eye out for their pitches, or better yet, let us know if we can pitch you.

Documentary chronicles history of liberation theology-inspired movements in Latin America The film "The Gospel of Revolution" traces liberation theology's history of inspiring social movements in Latin America to seek economic and social balance through policies that prioritized the poor.

Culture critic @josesolismayen.bsky.social reviews "The Gospel of Revolution", a 2024 documentary on #liberationtheology for @ncronline.bsky.social.

#LastFourWatched

I watched THE WIZARD OF OZ at the Lumière Institute today surrounded by children. Their gasps, chit chat, and “wow”s when Dorothy steps out into the Technicolor Oz made my heart so full 💕

Long live DISCO ELYSIUM 💘

Always a good day to catch this on the big screen. Its scope and ambition is equally admirable and delightful.

Thanks to the Public Theater for supporting my work with the BIPOC Critics Lab. Thanks to the Kennedy Center and Intermission Magazine/Stratford for hosting the Lab as well.

Any other cultural institutions/outlets wanna partner with us? Now’s the time to unite & fight back. We’re stronger together.

NYC Theater Received over $500,000 in FEMA Funds While Promoting ‘Anti-Racist,’ ‘Queer’ Shows | National Review The funds were provided from 2020 to 2023 as part of FEMA’s Covid relief program.

While living my life peacefully I have been name-checked in this ignorant, and hate-filled article from the National Review for my work as an anti-racism activist.

Every day you make a fascist angry with your work, is a day well lived.
