Since its establishment in 1915, Black History Month has served as a powerful platform to document the journey of Black individuals from the shackles of slavery, their ongoing fight for equality and civil rights, and to celebrate their significant civic and cultural contributions to society. Each February, and throughout the year, leading streaming services such as Netflix, Disney+, Max, Prime Video, Peacock, Paramount+, Apple TV+, and Hulu seize this national holiday as an opportunity to spotlight movies and shows crafted by Black creatives and starring Black talent.
This month presents an ideal opportunity to deepen your understanding of Black activists, icons, and pioneers, or to enhance and correct your knowledge of US history through engaging documentaries. Whether you're looking to diversify your watchlist with content created by or featuring Black talent, or you're eager to (re)watch films and series that have shaped and continue to influence culture, there's something for everyone.
