The programming includes the world premiere of A$AP Rocky's 'Stockholm Syndrome' documentary and a conversation between Gina Prince-Bythewood and Sanaa Lathan.
The 2021 Tribeca Film Festival has announced a lineup of specially curated Juneteenth programming, which will unapologetically celebrate Black excellence and storytelling in film, television, entertainment, and all-around Black culture. Throughout the festival, which will run between June 9-20, storytelling will put a spotlight on African Diasporic voices in celebration of June 19th.
“The festival has always been a welcoming space for creators to share their stories and in support of artists through social activism,” Tribeca Enterprises and Tribeca Festival co-founder and CEO Jane Rosenthal said in a press release. “I’m proud that this June, as part of our 20th anniversary, our programming is a powerful reflection of incredible storytellers that are deeply rooted in showcasing the rich legacy of the Black experience, all culminating on Juneteenth.”
