“Do you know why African men still have a ‘sound’ in film?”
Why is Africanness—especially for African men—something that has to be performed… through accents, tone, or even presence?
Endurance Grand from
@thefisherman.film unpacks the unspoken rules of representation:

And how African men are often boxed into narrow, sellable stereotypes to make that identity feel believable on screen.
But if being African is in us…
why does it still need to be proven?
