"I am not your Black," written by Samuel Jackson and depicting the blood and tears of the African-American civil rights movement, has shown its edge since its launch. It has not only swept several international film festivals for best documentaries and audience votes, but also been strongly shortlisted for best feature film at the Oscars. It won the BBC's top 10 must-see films in 2017, ranking among the best films of the year recommended by major media in the United States. This film is adapted from the unfinished work "remember this House" by James Baldwin, an African-American writer. The work recalls the successive assassinations of the black civil rights movement in the 1960s and the successive assassinations of his best friends, Meg Ives, Melcan X and Dr. King. Before the work was finished, James Baldwin died of stomach cancer, and the manuscript came to Haitian director Haoupec, making it the most important light and shadow chapter to witness the black civil rights movement in the United States.
