There’s this story about Robert Johnson, a guitarist from the Mississippi Delta, who sold his soul to the devil in order to become a great Blues musician. The legend says that Johnson met the Devil at the crossroads, made the deal, went on to achieve fame and glory, and died at the age of 27 when the devil came to collect the soul owed him.

This webinar is an inverse of the Robert Johnson myth. It’s about Ryan Coogler’s deal with the Ancestors to protect his soul as he negotiates his way through a corrupt, soul devouring, corporatized film industry.

In five years, with four films under his belt, Ryan Coogler has become the highest-grossing Black filmmaker in history and the youngest director to write and direct a billion-dollar movie – "Black Panther.” Coogler’s four films have grossed over $2 billion, and he has a net worth of over $25 million.

“Sinners” is Coogler’s fifth film. It is his first original script and is a personal story about Black family, Black history and Black culture. “Sinners” is the most important film in the brief career of a 38-year-old cinematic genius. It was #1 in the box office for two consecutive weeks and grossed $237 million in three weeks.

Browder will explore “Sinners” and the amazing career of Ryan Coogler in this webinar. You will be amazed, informed and enlightened.

Here ya go a prequel of how rennic was turned into a vampire.

Show his life pre and post vampirism in merry old Ireland.

It could show the nature of racism/classism that the Irish suffered under European cac

How he got to America and his first invasion..according to some reviewers theres news clippings about him landing in America around 1912..something about a ghost boat or certain strange happening in a few areas at the time.. it’s why I pointed out that the native Americans knew who he was due to prior dealings with him.. he might have invaded other areas prior to the 1930s and why he was getting chased in the movie.. that’s why I said the prequel could be about his prior invasion and show how the native Americans nearly stopped him and than the ending would be him landing at the klan member house

Interesting theory (I actually like the fact that this keeps people talking and going to see the movie).

However, Sammie was already "gifted" with great musical talent before he encountered "Remmick," and we already know that he was not a vampire.

Therefore, I really can't see Sammie needing to make a deal with the devil similar to the one allegedly made by "Robert Johnson" at the Crossroads.

This is bullshit...Sammy actually did have a reflection in the mirror ..it's on the lower left side of the mirror...remember Sammy is a small dude..you see his hat and stuff during the conversation

People don't comprehend how ridiculously difficult that is. To learn how to play the guitar like you've played it for years for a role is just...

I'm a singer and have been for 46 years. To be able to dance while singing is hard for me. That is some next level coordination I just don't possess. The playing the guitar while singing takes a whole nother level of skill and concentration. And learning the guitar while you're doing this... Jesus. Bravo, young man

Ask her how she felt when Lizzie was in a box. Her response should then be measured against the Irish responses. After that, ask yourself how did you feel when Lizzie was in a box.

Some Irish folks understand how their organization was sold out to the English and they’re upset about it.

It’s only Hip Hop if we have an IDOS/FIA splinter group. I need to see the Hidden Figures VHS before I commit to funding the museum.
