This pre-screening seminar will examine Spike Lee's HE GOT GAME through the lens of systemic pressure, coerced choices, and the emotional cost of "Black excellence."
It will explore how institutions commodify Black talent while denying true autonomy, and how this burden isolates figures like the film's star character, Jesus Shuttlesworth.
About the Instructor: Cliff Notez
Cliff Notez is a multi–digital media artist, musician, filmmaker, and professor. He is the co-founder of HipStory and the We Black Folk Initiative.
