It is with great pleasure that we announce that the indie mockumentary film “Am I Black Enough 4 You?!?!” will be showcased as part of the prominent Black Culture website Soul-Patrol.Com Black History Months Video and Film Series. “Am I Black Enough 4 You?!?!” stars comedian AJ Jamal and actor E. George Perry. The genesis of the story Is a conversation had between friends AJ Jamal and director/writer/producer Kevin Harewood where Jamal mentioned that he was once told that he would never be successful as a comedian In Hollywood because he wasn’t “Black Enough” as he doesn’t use profanity in his act. This set forth a Henry Gatesian quest to figure what defines “Blackness” and then find out “Who is the Blackest Man in America?”
Harewood describes the film as “Henry Gates meets Pootie Tang and Borat”. It recently won The Best Documentary Feature Film Award at The Kwanzaa Film Festival which operates out of Harlem, USA. It also was an Official Selection at The Urban MediaMakers Film Festival which operates out of Atlanta, Georgia.
