Following Barack Obama’s 2008 election, claims of a “post-racial” America were challenged by Jordan Peele’s Get Out (2017), which exposed enduring racism and reshaped contemporary Black horror. This week-long series screens key films examines how the genre confronts histories of violence, inequality, and systemic oppression through satire, surrealism, and horror. The programme highlights Black horror as a politically charged form that subverts dominant narratives of race, class, and identity, and concludes with a special podcast event following Get Out.
