In honor of Black History Month, I will allow three days of free online screenings of the documentary Brave New Souls: Black Sci-Fi & Fantasy Writers of the 21st Century.

From Sunday, February 1 at 12:00am (EST) through Tuesday, February 3 at 11:59pm (EST) you’ll be able to watch the documentary free of charge!

As the writer, director and producer of the film, I learned much about the process of documentary production as well as how many talented Black speculative fiction creators were out there who didn’t get the attention they deserved.

Brave New Souls premiered at Eagle Con LA on May 9, 2014 to a packed house and has been screened at Stan Lee’s Comikaze, Black Comic Book Day at the Schomburg and the Black Comix Arts Festival.

Check out a few clips as well as the trailer for the film:
