Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })I Am Not Your Negro is a 2016 documentary film by Raoul Peck.It is based on the writings of author and civil rights activist James Baldwin (1924-1987), one of the most acclaimed black writers of his generation. Baldwin left behind at his death an unfinished manuscript, Remember This House, a memoir of his recollections of civil rights leaders Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, and Medgar Evers. The manuscript was used by Raoul Peck as the foundation for a documentary film about the black experience in America. Although Baldwin's voice is heard throughout either through stock footage clips or readings from the manuscript, the documentary is not strictly about him (his homosexuality is only mentioned in an excerpt from an FBI file) so much as it is about America as seen through Baldwin's eyes.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })Samuel L. Jackson provides the voice of Baldwin, reading portions from the Remember This House manuscript. No Talking Heads are used, with the only voice being that of Baldwin, either from Jackson's narration or from stock footage. | |

Deliberately Monochrome: One sequence includes several clips of Baldwin giving a fiery speech at a public debate forum. It's presented in black and white, until the end, when the color fades in and it's revealed to be an early color television broadcast. (This is not done with other color footage of Baldwin, like his appearance on Dick Cavett's talk show.) | |

Call-Forward: Baldwin is scornful of Robert Kennedy's assertion that a black man might be president in 40 years, saying that black people have been in America for 400 years. This bit is then followed with a brief stock clip of Barack Obama. | |
