Filmmaker Michael Rice questions why the Black community is divided by homophobia and transphobia. How can we envision a path for healing? This film argues that the historic exclusion of Black queer and trans people from the Black community is an inherited legacy of systemic racism. Observe intimate group conversations as Rice asks the difficult questions and interlaces valuable academic discussion from Dr. Charlene Sinclair. Witness a vision of hope as BLACK AS U R profiles the resilience and beauty of numerous Black trans and queer people.
