Summer of Soul (…or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised)

In the summer of 1969, a monumental event unfolded parallel to Woodstock, as the Harlem Cultural Festival drew more than 300,000 people together to celebrate African American music, culture, and unity. This remarkable gathering showcased Black pride, but the festival’s footage remained hidden away in a basement for over half a century, leaving this vibrant chapter of American history unseen until it resurfaced. Now you can delve into this extraordinary story through “Summer of Soul (…or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised) (2021),” which is available to stream right here.
