![Bill Duke Instagram - My latest interview with #Indiewire. Thank you #RobertDaniels and Indiewire, I appreciate it.
Excerpt: And yet, his name is rarely mentioned alongside Spike Lee, John Singleton, the Hughes brothers, or Julie Dash in discussions about the decade’s most important Black auteurs. Maybe it’s because he doesn’t belong to a singular era? His movie acting career began with the Blaxploitation hit “Car Wash”; his television career coincided with the rise of African American filmmakers during the 1980s — now known as the L.A. Rebellion — during which he helmed episodes of “Dallas” (making him the first African American director to do so) and “Falcon Crest”; the height of his directorial feature run happened during the Black New Wave of the 1990s, when he was also making white-led movies like the Olympia Dukakis vehicle “The Cemetery Club.”
“In those days, if you were a Black director, you were expected to only do projects that were Black-oriented,” Duke told IndieWire during a recent interview via video call from his Los Angeles home. “And I wanted to break out [of] that box.”

Caption : Just wanted to share this photo from my Birthday luncheon. This is my dear friend, actor and comedian Garrett Morris. This brother and I have been in the trenches together in Hollywood for decades, and we’re still here. That’s a tremendous feat in itself. “We are all voyagers on this glorious sailing vessel called life, and one of the best sights we can see is that of a smiling, loyal and honest friend. Even if you have only one, you can continue your life’s voyage knowing that your friend will be there if needed, and right over your shoulder when you don’t. Friendship is always given freely or not at all”. #garrettmorris #realbillduke #coribanks444 #MPJINews #carlgilliard #comedy #friends #dukemediafoundation #dukemediainc #actors #torrencebrannonreese #comedians #carlgilliard @sydthewriter #entertainment #hollywood #octogenarian #director #filmmakerLikes : 42741

Caption : I’m deeply honored to participate in this project alongside the exceptionally talented Rob Edwards, the writer behind Legion M’s thrilling new graphic novel, “Defiant: The Story of Robert Smalls.” Rob is a screenwriter known for Disney’s #TreasurePlanet, Disney’s #PrincessandtheFrog, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, #InLivingColor, and Full House. Synopsis: During the height of the Civil War, #RobertSmalls, an enslaved harbor pilot in Charleston, pulled off one of the most daring heists in history – stealing a Confederate warship and sailing it past the naval blockade to freedom! Not only did his actions help convince President Abraham Lincoln to accept African American soldiers into the Union Army, but Smalls eventually served as a captain in the Navy – of the very ship he had stolen! After the war, Smalls was elected to the House of Representatives, becoming one of the first African Americans in Congress. While there, he wrote legislation for the first free and compulsory public school system in the US and so much more. #realbillduke #coribanks444 #legionM #dukemediaentertainment #TedLange #carlgilliard #Varietymagazine #AnthonyAnderson #RobEdwards #americanfilminstitute #HaywoodGalbreath @sydthewriter #thegrio #FreshPrinceofBelAir #Defiant #FullHouse #DisneyLikes : 3698

Caption : “One evening a Cherokee elder told his grandson about the battle that goes on inside people. He said, “My son, the battle is between two wolves that live inside us all. One is unhappiness. It is fear, worry, anger, jealousy, sorrow, self-pity, resentment, and inferiority. The other is happiness. It is joy, love, hope, serenity, kindness, generosity, truth, and compassion. The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, “Which wolf wins?” The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.” #reabillduke #dukemediafoundation #YouniteNetwork #dukemediaentertainment #quotes #CherokeeQuotes .Likes : 2470

Caption : I want to extend my heartfelt congratulations to my long-time friend and true brother from another mother, Garrett Morris, for being honored with a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Garrett has dedicated decades to the entertainment industry and his contributions have been nothing short of stellar. He is not only a wonderful human being but also a brilliant and talented individual who is beloved by millions of fans for his numerous TV appearances. Did you know that he spent 17 years in the industry before making his debut on Saturday Night Live? During this time, he showcased his versatility by working as a singer and arranger with Harry Belafonte, as an actor in Off-Broadway plays and musicals, and as a playwright with two successful productions. Additionally, Garrett played a pivotal role in the civil rights movement, contributing to the desegregation of Actor’s Equity and participating in the Black Arts Theater movement alongside poet and playwright Amiri Baraka. He truly embodies the essence of a multi-talented creative genius. I couldn’t be prouder to see him finally being immortalized on the iconic Hollywood Walk of Fame. Generations to come will gaze upon his star and recognize him as one of the best in Hollywood.

![Bill Duke - 2K Likes - My latest interview with #Indiewire. Thank you #RobertDaniels and Indiewire, I appreciate it.
Excerpt: And yet, his name is rarely mentioned alongside Spike Lee, John Singleton, the Hughes brothers, or Julie Dash in discussions about the decade’s most important Black auteurs. Maybe it’s because he doesn’t belong to a singular era? His movie acting career began with the Blaxploitation hit “Car Wash”; his television career coincided with the rise of African American filmmakers during the 1980s — now known as the L.A. Rebellion — during which he helmed episodes of “Dallas” (making him the first African American director to do so) and “Falcon Crest”; the height of his directorial feature run happened during the Black New Wave of the 1990s, when he was also making white-led movies like the Olympia Dukakis vehicle “The Cemetery Club.”
“In those days, if you were a Black director, you were expected to only do projects that were Black-oriented,” Duke told IndieWire during a recent interview via video call from his Los Angeles home. “And I wanted to break out [of] that box.”

Caption : Happy Sunday everyone! I’ve missed so many Throwback Thursdays and Flashback Fridays, but I ran across these photos from Motown’s Heroes and Legends Awards at the Beverly Hills Hotel Grand Ballroom from a few years ago. I was invited to the event by journalist Sydney Chandler aka “your majesty” a playful nickname I have for her. She’s a dear friend. Sydney was covering the event, told me she secured a ticket for me and I went. I could have gone inside while the red carpet was going on, but I wanted to see the behind the scenes of what journalists have to do. Believe me, it’s a lot. The young man interviewing me was a junior journalist and that kid is going places. I also saw old friends that I hadn’t seen in ages. I had a great time!

Caption : We’ve lost another great talent and an amazing woman. Rest Well, #LtUhura, #NichelleNichols. As Uhura, Nichols was one of the first Black women ever to play a main cast role on a television series, as “Star Trek” creator #GeneRoddenberry wanted the crew of the #USSEnterprise to come from many diverse backgrounds. Uhura, whose surname came from the Swahili word for “freedom,” was the ship’s communications officer with expertise in linguistics. Nichols was going to leave the show for Broadway, but Martin Luther King Jr. convinced her to stay. “‘You cannot, you cannot…for the first time on television, we will be seen as we should be seen every day, as intelligent, quality, beautiful, people who can sing dance, and can go to space, who are professors, lawyers,’” Nichols recalled King saying to her in a 2013 interview.“‘If you leave, that door can be closed because your role is not a Black role, and is not a female role, he can fill it with anybody even an alien.’” Her most famous scene coming in the 1968 episode “Plato’s Stepchildren,” where the Enterprise crew are held hostage by a telekinetic race called the Platonians and forced via mind control into humiliating situations. In one such situation, #CaptainKirk, played by William Shatner, was forced to kiss Uhura. While not the first, it was the most prominent instance at the time of an interracial kiss on American television. #StarTrek #WilliamShatner #thewrap #interracialkiss #TV #the60s #heidibfuller #realBillDuke #MPJINews #JudyPace #Actress #blackexcellence #blackactress #carlgilliard #shebaabrahaim #felixgiles #historymaker #firstbutnotlast #TedLange #MLKLikes : 1156

Caption : ON THIS FLASHBACK MONDAY: “Mandy”, starring Bill Duke and Nicholas Cage. Bill received rave reviews for his role in “Mandy” The Hollywood Reporter called Bill “Mandy’s Secret Weapon”. Bill Duke, played Caruthers, Red’s (Nicholas Cage) friend, a man living off the grid and away from prying eyes in a modest RV encampment-cum-arms depot. “Caruthers interregnum lends the film a welcome, and necessary, layer of reality to augment its unreality. Caruthers knows who, and what, Red is after, and he’s happy to expound as plot demands. “So whatcha hunting?” he asks. “Jesus freaks,” Red replies. “I didn’t know they was in season,” says Caruthers.” “Being a movie’s designated Exposition Character is, about nine times out of ten, a thankless job. Mandy thanks Duke profusely, because he takes that job, that one scene, and channels the function of exposition into language thick with gravitas. “No one knows where they come from,” Caruthers tells Red, framed by golden light pouring in from the windows as he sinks in his recliner. “First it was stories from the interstate, leaving truckers for dead, prostitutes vanishing, and gutted bodies on doorsteps, and always the same: Biker gang, black bikes, only seen at night.” Duke draws out each line, every word, as though the syllables are the last bits of meat he’s sucking from the bone. He’s enjoying himself, a wary tremble in his voice as he warns Red that he’s got low odds of avenging Mandy and living”.

Caption : As Ted said, the old team is back together again. #GarrettMorris, me and #TedLange. We shared the stage together in the Broadway show “Ain’t Supposed To Die A Natural Death” in 1972.

Caption : Hope everyone will have a fun and relaxing weekend. Today we’re posting a photo of Bill Duke and film director and actor #MarioVanPeebles. In case you didn’t know, Mario is the son of the great actor, #filmmaker, writer, and composer, Melvin Van Peebles. And it just so happens that Melvin Van Peebles’ film, “Sweet Sweetback’s Baadasssss Song” is one of Bill’s favorite films. Mario Van Peebles is best known for directing and starring in New Jack City in 1991, Posse in 1993 and USS Indianapolis: Men of Courage in 2016. #realbillduke #dukemediaentertainment #dukemediafoundation #YouniteNetwork #heidibfuller #aspiretoinspire #purpose #positivechange #sallirichardson #motivation #inspiration #empowerment @sydthewriter #hope #wesleysnipes #shebaabrahaim #Carlgilliard #posse #newjackcity #felixgiles #torrencebrannonreese #mpjinews #melvinvanpeeblesLikes : 889

Caption : To the @wgawest and all of the writers out there picketing, I want to let you know that I stand in complete solidary with this strike. You are talented and much needed members of the entertainment community, and you deserve everything that you are asking for. Without writers, this industry could not function properly. And no amount of AI can breathe life into the pages of a script….writers are the only ones who can do it thoughtfully, incitefully and accurately. They’re the backbone of a beautifully acted and directed film, and hit shows both on broadcast TV and streamers. Blessings, Bill Duke.✊ #realBillDuke #writers #writersdeservebetter #royalties #insolidarity @wgaeast #PayWriterswhattheyreworth #dukemediafoundation #entertainment #carlgilliard @sydthewriter #MPJINews #Variety #hollywoodreporter #thegrioLikes : 871
