RIGHT ON! is a pioneering performance film, described by its producer as “the first ‘totally black film,” making “no concession in language and symbolism to white audiences.” It is a compelling record of radical Black sentiment in 1960s America. It features the original Last Poets—Gylan Kain, David Nelson, and Felipe Luciano shot guerilla-style on the streets and rooftops of lower Manhattan.
