Black Is... Black Ain't Ratings & Reviews
New York Times
Walter Goodman
Whatever its excesses, "Black Is . . . Black Ain't" stands as a testament to a dedicated and daring man.
Slant Magazine
Bill Weber
A still relevant call for communion among diverse African-American communities, and an elegy for an activist-artist.
The Film Experience
Glenn Dunks
Riggs' Black Is... Black Ain't completed and released in 1995 after his death, a film that once again aches with the memories of queer, black and femme individuals.
From the Front Row
Mattie Lucas
A completely masterful work, a work of avant-garde brilliance whose prismatic lens lends its subject a breathtaking scope.
