From the beginning, American cinema has been both a powerful mythmaker and a social critic. D.W.

In response, filmmakers of color have created nuanced and indelible portraits of race.

In the age of Trump and Brexit, every crisis is instantly overridden by the next. The turbulent political weather of the 21st century generates anxiety and makes it difficult to know how to react. Laing makes an inspiring case for why art matters more than ever, as a force of both resistance and repair. Art, she argues, changes how we see the world. It gives us X-ray vision.
