Black People : Stories of African Kingdoms

[karmashines]

Are there any epic movies or documentaries about Nubia / Egypt, the Dahomey Kingdom, the Asantes, etc?

Not a bad idea. There should also be more historical fiction books with a setting in these civilizations.

There are many writers here... perhaps some should explore this more for future works.

I'm contantly on the lookout for any sources that I can use later on for a short of feature film. These are 2 sites I've been to a few times:

The Story of Africa
Ancient Africa's Black Kingdoms

I think they are only making one movie about Hannibal, maybe I'm wrong? I heard Denzel dropped out and Vin Diesel is playing the part, definitely. If I were you I wouldn't count on a MOVIE of all things to give the type of accuracy that will make our people feel better about history.
