Episode Notes

We talk about the new Netflix time travel movie See You Yesterday. This is a distinctly Black science fiction movie from director and co-writer Stefon Bristol, co-writer Fredrica Bailey, and producer Spike Lee.

We discuss the movie, what we liked, and our opinions on several polarizing elements of the film. We examine what it means to be a Black time travel movie: What elements transform this from a movie about time travel with Black characters to a Black time travel movie? We also attempt to place the film in conversation with other time travel movies, recent discussions on Afrofuturism, and portrayals of police brutality in media.
