Engrossing

I think the title is perfect. It forced me to rethink issues of cultural bias. The focus of the film is clear, this idea of myths revealing deep truths, but also misleading and sometimes false ones too, especially as it relates to the idea of colorblindness within society.

Compelling Exploration of African American Art in France

Incisive interviews and a compelling exploration of the art made by African Americans in France. The film shares perspectives that invite consideration of whether these expatriates faced less discrimination in France than in the United States, while recognizing the significant contributions made by these artists.

Two thumbs up!

As a 28-year Paris expatriate, I love the broad, sensitive look that Myth of a Colorblind France has taken at the African-American presence here from the 19th century to today. It goes far beyond the well-worn review of the lives of Josephine Baker and Richard Wright in the City of Light. Anyone wanting to gain an understanding of why African Americans long considered France to be a colorblind society should see this film!

To be watched absolutely

As the Parisian granddaughter of Richard Wright who chose exile in Paris, I was very much touched by Myth of a Colorblind France because it brings up an in-depth perspective of why African Americans expatriates of yesterday and today have chosen the city of light . It is a precious archive for our community. It brings up the important question about how african migrants in Paris experience discrimination .
