Race and Class Collection
Beamafilm
This diverse collection of documentaries explores the complex intersections of race, class, and identity across different cultures and time periods. From Indigenous experiences in "Servant or Slave" and "Boxing For Palm Island" to immigrant narratives in "The Journey of Vaan Nguyen," these films offer nuanced perspectives on social inequalities. The series examines racial tensions in law enforcement with "Koories and Cops," while "There Goes Our Neighbourhood" delves into urban gentrification. Historical contexts are provided through works like "Nelson Mandela - One Man An Unauthorized Story" and "The Life and Work of George Orwell," offering insights into systemic inequalities and social justice movements.
The Race and Class Collection is available for unlimited library streaming with flexible licensing options. Contact our marketing team for customised pricing or options tailored to your institution’s needs:
