How to Raise a Black Boy

'Justice Jamal Jones is a multidisciplinary artist based in New York City. Their debut narrative short How To Raise a Black Boy follows four boys as they journey through a fantastical world of Black boyhood, Queer identity, and fraternity in a modern reimagining of the fairy tale genre. “How To Raise A Black Boy was originally an analysis of my childhood, that happened to be Queer and Black,” says the director, “but it grew beyond my childhood to become a collage of my academic career, current American politics, and the shared experience of childhood secrets that haunt our adulthoods”.' -- NOWNESS
