Daughters of the Dust, set in 1902, is a languid look at the Gullah culture of the sea islands off the coast of South Carolina and Georgia where African folk-ways were maintained well into the 20th Century and was one of the last bastions of these mores in America. Some interesting facts about Daughters of the DustThis independent film, premiered in 1991 and was written, produced and directed by Julie Dash.In 2004, it was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant".In 2016, it was restored and re-released by Cohen Media Group.Some things that surprised Livia & Zainab about Daughters of the DustLivia: The film was elegant, beautiful and non-confrontational with a poetic narrative, while depicting a significant and shattering time in the history of the Gullah community.Zainab:  The film seemed to portray an authentic depiction of the Gullah community while using a poetic narrative with themes of hyperfeminism. It was very evident that the director was  thoughtful, intimate and intentional with the story every step of the way.Follow along as Livia & Zainab review Daughters of the Dust and discuss how history and culture influence our sense of self and identity. They also rate the film by critically reviewing four key elements of filmmaking: Storytelling, Cinematography, Character Development and Overall Message. Music CreditTheme Song: The Way by  KAR33MMusic: Purple Planet Music

Filmen "Daughters of the dust" utspelas 1902 på en ö utanför Georgias kust och handlar om familjen Peazant. Vi träffar både levande och döda släktingar en söndag på stranden i denna afroamerikanska klassiker. Julie Dashs "Daughters of the dust" är den första film gjord av en afroamerikansk kvinna, som fått biodistribution över hela USA. Det är fortfarande hennes enda långfilm men detta visionära, bildsköna drama har klassikerstatus i filmhistorien och ingår i det amerikanska filmarvet. 2004 kvalade filmen in i den nationella filmskatt som utgörs av "National film registry". "Daughters of the dust" som av Helena Lindblad i Dagens Nyheter beskrevs som "en subtropisk kostymfilm", tog närmare 15 år att göra. Filmen är ett mytologiskt drömspel som handlar om hur slaveriet satt spår i människornas själar, men utan att visa en enda piska eller ett enda bomullsfält i bild. De enda visuella tecken från slaveriets tid vi ser i filmen, är familjens indigofläckade händer. De närmast tatuerade blålila spåren efter att ha slitit på indigoplantagen. Det är kvinnorna som står i centrum och den som för ordet är ett ofött barn som befinner sig i historiens mellanrum av mormödrar, mödrar och deras barn. Alla är klädda i edwardianska vita klänningar och de vandrar, och dansar och för samtal längs de vita palmkantade ständerna - om familjehistorien och de olika öden som drabbat familjemedlemmarna under slaveriet och efter befrielsen. Nu vill den yngre generationen lämna ön och gå vidare. När Beyoncés visuella album Lemonade kom 2016 i anslutning till hennes album med samma namn, var det många som såg influencerna från Julie Dash film. Något som gav filmen något av en pånyttfödelse. Samma år digitaliserades och restaurerades den också till ursprunglig filmkvalitet och med korrekt färgåtergivning och tillgängliggjordes på Netflix. Nina Asarnoj nina.asarnoj@sr.se

Today we discuss two wonderful black feminist movies! The first one we talk about is Daughters of the Dust directed by Julie Dash. Daughters of the Dust is set in 1902 and follows a family as they prepare to leave the Sea Islands, on the coast of Georgia, to move to the mainland. The second movie is Lemonade by Beyoncé. Marketed as a "visual album", Lemonade is a series of music videos, like mini-movies, that tell a story of betrayal, pain, self-love, and redemption. Questions to Consider: How can multi-media lessons add depth to our curriculum? When we teach black history, are we including more than just moments of pain and suffering? How can presenting a culture as monolithic be damaging to our students? Support the show (https://theorymeetspracticepod.blogspot.com/)

Intro Music: by Lafayette Ellis Black Indie Cinema is a podcast created by Quanisha Madison, that finds underrepresented Indie Movies including minority, LGBTQ, and classic films. Watch, Analyze, and review. In this episode, we will discuss the movie Daughters of the Dust and review details about the movie.

On the first segment of today’s show, host Tom Breen is joined by Connecticut poet Kate Rushin to talk about two movies that have had a profound influence on her understanding and love of cinema: DAUGHTERS OF THE DUST, a landmark 1991 drama from director Julie Dash about three generations of African American Gullah women from the Sea Islands of South Carolina, a movie often celebrated as the first feature film directed by an African American woman to get a wide theatrical release in the United States; and we’ll also talk about BLACK ORPHEUS, a 1959 musical from French director Marcel Camus that adapts the classical Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice to the vibrant, samba-suffused streets of Brazil’s Rio de Janeiro during Carnival.On the second segment of the show, Breen and the New Haven Independent’s Allan Appel review THREE BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE EBBING, MISSOURI, a new ensemble dramedy from director Martin McDonagh that follows a grieving, defiant mother seeking justice for her murdered child in a small town in the Ozark mountains of southern Missouri.

In this episode we are joined by Oscar Harding, a film researcher and producer based in the UK to discuss depictions of slave trade in film in reference to three films; Roger Gnoan M'Bala's underrated film "Adanggaman", Julie Dash's recently re-released "Daughters of the dust" and Haile Gerima's "Sankofa".

This week on Black on Black Cinema, the guys are back to discuss the 1991 independent film, Daughters of the Dust. Taking place in 1902, the film depicts the days before a Gullah (or Geechee) family decides to leave their island off the coast of South Carolina to move to the mainland United States. What is seemingly a video essay of sorts about the migration of cultures and the preservation of those cultures plays as a direct throughline to some modern African American norms of today. Daughters of the Dust works to show just how others see their place in the history of their own culture and family. 

This week the Kyles are joined by Tristan to talk about Julie Dash's film, Daughters of the Dust. The normal segments are featured as usual. In this episode the creation of beefchuck.com takes place, and it is magnificent.

Set in the legendary Sea Islands off the South Carolina/Georgia coast in 1902, Julie Dash’s DAUGHTERS OF THE DUST (1991) follows a Gullah family (descendants of West African slaves) on the eve of its migration to the North. Led by a group of women who carry with them ancient African traditions, the extended family readies itself to leave behind friends, loved ones and their insulated way of life. Can these women hold fast to their sacred religious beliefs and customs, or will their world be swept away in the course of a new century? This richly costumed drama, structured in tableaux to reflect the art and icons of African tradition, testifies movingly to the secret celebrations and packed-away sorrows of African-American women. These vital images were introduced to a new generation on a massive scale earlier this year, when the film was heavily referenced in Beyoncé’s visual album, Lemonade. DAUGHTERS OF THE DUST became the first film by an African-American woman ever to receive widespread theatrical release. Enriched by John Barnes’s eclectic score and Arthur Jafa’s Sundance Film Festival-prize-winning cinematography, listed in the National Film Registry DAUGHTERS OF THE DUST was hailed as one of the most visually and sonically ravishing in American independent cinema. Director Julie Dash joins us for a conversation on her sweeping, absorbing and poetic homage to African culture. For news and updates go to: daughters-of-the-dust
