Previews of Just Mercy, Atlantics, Waves, Harriet and Clemency. 

Join Subrina Wood the Cinnamon Cinephile and this week\'s guest expert Cynthia Rosenberry, Esq.  as they discuss five incredible soon to be released films recently shown at the Middleburg Film Festival in October .
\\nAlthough the scenarios are as varied as the time periods, all five films have at their core the resilence of the Black Family and the need for it for black people surviving in America. The films cover the racism in criminal justice system, immigration from the point of view of the ones left behind, coping with the stress of chasing the America dream, the historical narrative of slavery, and the horrors of carrying out  executions. It\'s a wide shot of America today.
