The post Warrington Hudlin – Black at Yale: A Film Diary (1974) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

This classic 1968 documentary highlights the activities of the headquarters of the Black Panther Party in Oakland, California as its members fight for the freedom of its imprisoned co-founder Huey P. Newton.

Quote:
Agnès Varda a réalisé deux documentaires sur le mouvement des Black Panthers en 1968. Huey plonge dans l’atmosphère militante de la campagne « Libérez Huey » tandis que Black Panthers se concentre sur l’impact du parti à un niveau local dans la communauté afro-américaine d’Oakland. Basés sur sa propre expérience en Californie où elle vivait en 1968, les deux films nous font découvrir la culture des « panthères noires ». Cet article compare la démarche esthétique et politique des deux documentaires : du mode d’observation adopté dans Huey au mode d’exposition qui prévaut dans Black Panthers, la réalisatrice s’attache à démystifier le portrait des panthères et la menace qu’elles incarnèrent dans les médias. A travers une étude détaillée des films de Varda, nous nous efforcerons de mettre en lumière les stratégies politiques théâtrales développées par les Panthères et mises en avant dans les documentaires en contrepoint d’un discours historiographique plus récent, qui souligne les inégalités de genre à l’intérieur du parti.

Translation: Agnès Varda made two documentaries on the Black Panthers movement in 1968. Huey immerses himself in the militant atmosphere of the “Free Huey” campaign while Black Panthers focuses on the party’s impact at a local level in the Afro community. Oakland American. Based on her own experience in California where she lived in 1968, the two films introduce us to the culture of “black panthers”. This article compares the aesthetic and political approach of the two documentaries: from the mode of observation adopted in Huey to the mode of exposure that prevails in Black Panthers, the director strives to demystify the portrait of panthers and the threat they embodied in the media. Through a detailed study of Varda’s films, we will endeavor to shed light on the theatrical political strategies developed by the Panthers and put forward in the documentaries as a counterpoint to a more recent historiographical discourse, which emphasizes gender inequalities at the inside the party.
