"The Black Power Mixtape" is a chapterized revisiting of the years 1967-1975 using footage from a Swedish production team. There was footage I'd never seen before of Angela Davis, Stokely Carmichael, and others. It had dozens of interviews with commentary from the Swedish folks at that time (subtitled) as well as contemporary celebrities such as Erykah Badu and Talib Kweli.
If you are as enthralled with the 60's, the Civil Rights Movement, the Black Power movement, and the Black Panther Party as I am, then you may like this documentary. Personally, I take every opportunity to view new footage of that era and to hear some of the people from that era who are still alive. TBPM gives you just that.

Swedish Documenting of the Black Power Movement
from the past to the present
Old footage of Swedish reports on the racial strife in America is found in Swedish Television. The footage is re-edited into a documentary released in 2011. It follows the black power movement in America one year after the next from 1967 to 1975. It also contains commentary from 2010. Many of the early years follow activist Stokely Carmichael until his self exile. There is a lot with the Black Panther with a section on the case of Angela Davis. The TV Guide part is an interesting window into the culture war. 1974 is the war on drugs and the Nation of Islam. 1975 is trying to wrap things up. One notable note is Angela 2010 who mentions a black president. Time and time again, this movie echoes from the past into our very present. It's 2020 and so much of this is a reminder of today. So much is a mirror. This is a great time capsule and hopefully, it's one sign post on the road to progress.
