Nettie. Celie. Sofia. Mister. Shug.
Alice Walker's words. Steven Spielberg's interpretation.
This story has never been easy. And even 40 years later, it still isn’t. The layers of misogyny, Black masculinity, generational trauma, broken family systems, and abuse don’t soften with time—the conversation stays heavy.
But The Color Purple is an American classic. An Oscar-nominated film that gave us unforgettable scenes and dialogue—moments that find humor in pain and offer comfort in the middle of anger.
From the pages of the book to the screen (twice) and the Broadway stage, this story has lived, evolved, and endured.
Join us as we run it back and unpack the 1985 film that still reminds us that mainstream awards aren't for us because THIS film deserved an Oscar or ten. The Color Purple.
