The Museum of Modern Art is currently showing daily screenings of St. Clair Bourne’s The Black and the Green and Black Journal now through March 14th.

 

St. Clair Bourne’s long overlooked documentary The Black and the Green returns with the New York premiere of MoMA’s new 4K preservation, completed in a special arrangement with the late filmmaker's sister, Judith Bourne. During his 36-year career, the Harlem-native, Brooklyn-based Bourne (1943–2007) created illuminating and at times contrarian portraits of influential African American cultural and historical figures and examined aspects of African American society that were neglected or willfully misunderstood by the mainstream. In The Black and the Green (1983), Bourne explored the influence of the African American civil rights movement, both in philosophy and strategy, on the fight for Catholic independence in Northern Ireland during the Troubles.

 

An episode of Black Journal, the groundbreaking PBS public affairs series for which Bourne served as a producer, director, and cinematographer as part of a uniquely African American team in the late 1960s and early 1970s, is also presented in this weeklong theatrical run.
