But baton heres what else is in the works. Yet another documentary shows off the pression Cultural Heritage foundations vast collection of artifacts from all over the world comprising what is known as berlins Treasure Trove. And italian photographer down by new nose work is a feast for the eyes and a rather off kilter mirror of the soul of his famous inspirations. Well her writing career is all inspiring tony morris the Nobel Prize Winning author and from todays perspective it may be kind of hard to imagine how long it took for her author of the bestselling novel beloved to give the African American story its rightful place in the american canon well now a new documentary about her life the pieces i am puts her work into context and when its over you feel as if youve spent 2 hours in her excellent company. It was illegal in his. Words. This new documentary traces the rise of the best selling author Nobel Prize Winner and Force Of Nature Toni Morrison. Before becoming a writer made her way up the male dominated world of new york publishing always fearless she soon realized that she not any of the old white guys was the smartest person in the room. I was more interesting than the critics damper 1st novels with faint praise and condescension one of the early reviews says shes got a great talent one day she wont limit it to only writing about black people like really its hard to write about black people sick and they did a black. I prefer with you. But im tired of people asking the. Oprah winfreys book club to make more sense a Household Name her novels became bestsellers and 97 her masterpiece beloved won the Pulitzer Prize details about the lasting trauma of slavery was turned into a film produced by and starring Oprah Winfrey sadly film critics didnt know how to handle morrisons story of an escaped slave who kills her daughter rather than let her be recaptured even morrison said she was shocked when she got the call saying shed won the Nobel Prize For Literature now and then the holy can focus too much into. Toni morrisons work shows through pain all the myriad ways we can come to love that is what she did was the words on the page. Toni morrison the pieces i am is a personal powerful portrait of an artist who changed the canon. And my colleague Scott Roxboro Has joined me in the studio to tell us more about the piece is i am welcome scott how did this film resonate with you and what do we
learn about 20 or so all i think you learn a lot about her as a person its all just a lot about her work but so much of this is a is an interview with Toni Morrison and it was really fascinating for me to see about her life as a single mom about the struggle she had to make it 1st the Publishing Industry and fighting against chauvinist editors and critics and also to see this image of this incredibly strong selfassured a black woman whos also obviously having the time of her life so wonderful its very much about her personal journey but also remarked about how she changed our view of literature full stop and its so interesting perhaps for the Younger Generations that so many of the issues she was banging the same drones 40 years ago that the need to movement is talking about today yeah very much so i mean a lot of personal stories in this documentary are the stories of her fight for equal pay the stories of her fights against you know the the male dominated world situation i was moving in Racial Segregation and so forth and its its really complex and its interesting that the new generation the Younger Generation of
women in particular are discovering Toni Morrison as a sort of feminist icon and watches dont have to think how theres another of these sort of 80 plus year old women who are being celebrated as sort of pop icons i mean i had to think of the roots. Peter ginsberg and dr Ruth Westheimer both of whom have their own documentaries documentaries that are just made of something. Bigger ginsberg course. A justice on the Supreme Court but the documentary about her called r g b is is also about her image as a as a Pop Culture Icon because shes become the known as the notorious r g r b g and has been as been sparked thousands of Internet Memes but my personal favorite is the other kind ruth dr Ruth Westheimer the jewish german immigrant whos been teaching america about sex for a generation still going strong. Getting stronger you know what. Shes a you know shes the pioneer of of liberalism of these these feminist movements and
i think its amazing that these 80 plus year old women are become sort of pop stars for a Younger Generation when thank goodness that credit is coming where credit is due to they did so much ground work but you know talking about. Margaret atwood account as literary icon has to be kind of included i would say and were not in the you in that in that kind of way that its very much you see 79. 00 i think but yeah i mean shes almost beyond say of the feminist literature in my opinion and shes created the big feminist name of course because with her book them and sale which is adapted as a t. V. Series the images from that which you know the long red cloak the the white bonnet that has been used as the mean of protest against the patriarchy worldwide we saw it in recently in the protests against the point of Brown Cannot Kavanaugh to be a Supreme Court court and you saw the women coming out in this outfit and its become so iconic its really seen now around the world any time women particularly young women want to protest against injustice or against sexism against racism they
use this image and i think its amazing that that is created by a 79 year old woman who started this battle way back when they were born someone like Gloria Steinem comes to my mind i think theyre making a new film about you know when we go forward youre thinking to you about that when the time comes Toni Morrisons the pieces i am i Timothy Greenfield Sanders is in the u. S. Theaters and thanks very much to Scott Roxboro for bringing us all that backstory and. Well i always like to remind people that early in our free Spirited Hoff and Grungy Capital has more museums than paris more than 170 in fact and one of the reasons for that is the pressure Cultural Heritage foundation its massive collection stretches from the stone age all the way to Contemporary Art and while some of it starts like an effort of course are well known many other treasures can now be seen in a brand new documentary a coproduction between d.
