In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

Arnold has to face his on-again off-again crush on Lila once and for all when he starts getting attention from an unexpected source: Gerald’s little sister! “Timberly Loves Arnold” is a bit all over the place (didn’t we close the book on #LilArnold? Why’s Gerald so absent? Why’s Sid gotta be so creepy?), but it does get the Kidz a bit nostalgic for the social awkwardness of childhood crushes and sibling tag-alongs. Timberly’s good people. “Eugene, Eugene!” dramatizes the relationships among the kids of P.S. 118 when theater director (and Mr. Simmons’s archrival) Mr. Leichliter brings a production of the titular stage play to the school. Spurned by a former love, Leichliter changes the ending of the play so the bad guy (Arnold) gets the girl (Lila) – and long-suffering Eugene won’t stand for it. In our discussion, we talk about the framing of narratives as school play, how inconsequential Helga is, and how cool Tim Curry is.
