Black History Month: Culture Creators and Barrier Breakers

This Black History Month we are leaning in to the culture creators, barrier breakers, and milestone makers who have changed our world.

Jimi Hendrix: The Uncut Story. From his upbringing in Seattle to his final days in London, this series explores the complex life-story behind the legendary artist Jimi Hendrix. 

Muhammad Ali: The Greatest. Spanning his early years to his triumph at the 1966 Olympics, take a rare look at one of the world's most endearing heroes.

Livin' for Love: The Natalie Cole Story. Follow Natalie Cole and the legacy of her father the late great Nat King Cole whose absence fueled her triumph over drug addiction, paved a path to resilience, and the duet that reignited a remarkable comeback.

A Woman Called Moses stars the late, legendary Cicely Tyson in a miniseries honoring the life of Harriet Tubman who summoned the strength and indomitable will to defy and overcome a tyrannous system. 

In King: Man of Peace in a Time of War, MLK's profundity is highlighted through never before seen speeches, TV interviews, and quiet moments of reflection. In all, they weave together yet another series of threads in a tapestry not nearly finished.
