JUDAS AND THE BLACK MESSIAH FYC (FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION)
Judas and the Black Messiah is a powerful film that explores the complex dynamics of the Black Panther Party during the late 1960s, particularly focusing on the life of Fred Hampton, the young chairman of the Illinois chapter, and the FBI informant, William O'Neal. This film offers an in-depth look at the personal and political struggles faced by individuals navigating a turbulent period in American history.
The film, directed by Shaka King, is notable for its poignant portrayal of the intersection of race, politics, and betrayal. Through its rich storytelling and compelling performances, particularly by Daniel Kaluuya as Fred Hampton and Lakeith Stanfield as William O'Neal, the movie invites viewers to dive into the emotional and ideological divides that characterized the Black liberation movement.
One of the film's central themes is betrayal. O'Neal, who was initially a petty criminal, becomes a key informant for the FBI under the direction of J. Edgar Hoover. This betrayal not only impacts the lives of individuals but also the broader movement for social justice. The film portrays the moral conflict faced by O'Neal as he grapples with his role in undermining a movement that aimed to uplift his community.
In addition to its intimate character studies, Judas and the Black Messiah situates its narrative within the larger context of the Black Panther Party's goals and ideology. The film highlights key initiatives such as:
Free Breakfast Programs - These initiatives aimed to address childhood hunger and provide nourishment for children in impoverished neighborhoods.
Health Clinics - The film showcases the Panther's commitment to community health, establishing clinics that provided medical care to those who were often overlooked by traditional healthcare systems.
Education and Awareness - The party conducted educational programs that focused on Black history and empowerment, emphasizing the importance of self-determination and political awareness.
The cinematography and score of the film also play a crucial role in immersing the audience in the atmosphere of 1960s America. The meticulous attention to detail in set design, costume, and lighting creates a vivid backdrop that enhances the storytelling. Furthermore, the soundtrack features a blend of period-appropriate music and contemporary tracks that evoke the emotional landscape of the characters.
Judas and the Black Messiah does not shy away from addressing the challenges faced by the Black community, including police brutality and systemic oppression. By portraying real historical events, the film serves as a reminder of the ongoing struggles for justice and equality, making it relevant to contemporary discussions about race relations in the United States.
In conclusion, Judas and the Black Messiah is a significant cinematic work that captures the essence of a pivotal moment in American history. Its exploration of themes such as loyalty, betrayal, and the fight for civil rights resonates deeply, making it a timely piece for audiences seeking to understand the complexities of social justice movements past and present. The film stands not just as a historical dramatization but as a call to action and reflection on the threads that continue to bind us in the fight for equality.

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
