tumblr_mhebryrNDN1ql4e7go1_1280

The 12 O’CLOCK BOYS are a notorious urban dirt bike pack in Baltimore — popping wheelies and weaving at excessive speeds through traffic, the group impressively evades the hamstrung police. In Lotfy Nathan’s wild, dynamic documentary (three years in the making), their stunning antics are envisioned through the eyes of young adolescent Pug – a bright kid from the Westside obsessed with the riders and willing to do anything to join their ranks. Premiering to critical acclaim at the SXSW and Hot Docs Film Festivals (where Nathan won the HBO Emerging Artist Award), 12 O’CLOCK BOYS provides a compelling and intimate personal story of a young boy and his dangerous, thrilling dream. Have a look below at this exciting trailer Directed by Lotfy Nathan.

Book : Black Folktales by Julius Lester

316c953e09a011e3933922000a1fc684_7

Excellent Book handed by Artist Joey Green. The stories come from the black people in the cities and villages of Africa and on the street corners, stoops porches, in bars, barber shops, and wherever else in the united state black people gather.

Most of them have been written down before, in different words and for different times. Some are still told in Africa, like “The girl with the Large Eyes and “The Son of Kim-Ana-u-eze and the daughter of the Sun and the Moon. Some come from Slavery time, like “High John the Conqueror” and “People Who could Fly.”Some have been told in the south so long that nobody knows where they come from like “How God made the Butterflies” and “How the snake got his rattles”

In this book Julius Lester is telling us these stories not as they were told a hundred years ago but as he tell them now and tell them only because they have meaning now
