Black love

Production by Tswelopelo Maputla
Tswelopele’s first encounter with Black Consciousness was through her father who gave her his copy of Steve Biko’s “I write what I like” when she was in grade 10. Since then, she’s grown into a pro-black feminist thinker whose outfits are inspired by the 70s, an era she believes was great for fashion and intellect. In this documentary, Tswelopele explores black love through politics and fashion inspired by her parents.
