Spike Lee’s controversial satire Bamboozled follows a young Black television executive who, trying to get fired, proposes making a modern minstrel show. His boss loves the idea and the New Millennial Minstrel Show goes into problematic production. The film satirizes American racial relations and the commercialization of Black bodies in ways that feel as relevant today as when it was released two decades ago.
