Black People is a story of a man trying to break the chains of psychological slavery.

In our short film "Black People" in terms of psychological slavery. We explore the impact that slavery had on the development of black people mentally. In terms of personality, self esteem, self image, and also the entire maturation process people go through. Our contention is that slavery has certainly retarded that for slaves. And when slavery ended, jim crow, racial segregation, racial oppression continued many of the same aspects of slavery. That is: to create in black people a sense of inferiority. This film shows the view point on someone who claims to be conscious, but still be unable to balance real-world priorities and self-interest. Watch Kahlil rise against his enslaved mind and break the chains of psychological slavery.
