Inclusive Cinema: Black Lives Matter

Posted on 18 Jun 2020

Inclusive Cinema is committed to addressing inequality and promoting diversity in UK cinema exhibition.

Inclusive Cinema stands in solidarity with Black Lives Matter and is listening, learning and taking action to share resources with the Film Audience Network membership and amplify the work of Black-led organisations, makers and curators.

Visit Inclusive Cinema for information and resources.

Black culture is integral to British society and should be woven into our education and cultural understanding all year round, not just for now, but forever. As an opportunity to raise up the stories of those who have been marginalised, we hope this resource can be used as a vehicle to start important conversations and continue creating change – in on-screen representation, recognition of cultural impact, and in delivering a more inclusive future. - Inclusive Cinema
