He went blind at the age of 7. With the staunch support of his determined single mother, he developed a fierce resolve. He had wit and incredible talent which would eventually enable him to overcome not only Jim Crow racism and the cruel prejudices against the blind, but also discover his own sound which revolutionized American popular music. Nonetheless, as Ray's unprecedented fame grew, so did his weakness for drugs and women, until they threatened to strip away the very things he held most dear.MPAA rating: PG-13; depiction of drug addiction, sexuality and some thematic elements.DVD, region 1, anamorphic widescreen (1.85:1); Dolby Digital 5.1 surround, dual-layer, NTSC.Academy Awards, 2005: Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role (Jamie Foxx); Best Achievement in Sound Mixing.Golden Globes, 2005: Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy (Jamie Foxx).Seattle Film Critics Awards, 2004: Best Actor (Jamie Foxx).- Subjects: Biographical films.; Feature films.; Musical films.; Video recordings for the hearing impaired.; Charles, Ray, 1930-2004; African American men; African American men; Blind entertainers; Racism;

Includes bibliographical references."An anthology of Black resilience and reclamation. Born of a desire to bring together the voices of those most harshly affected by the intersecting pandemics of Covid-19 and systemic racism, Bigger Than Bravery explores comfort and compromise, challenge and resilience, throughout the Great Pause that became the Great Call. Award-winning author and scholar of the Black archive Valerie Boyd curates this anthology of original essays and poems, alongside some of the most influential nonfiction published on the subject, inviting readers into a conversation of restorative joy and enduring wisdom. Bigger Than Bravery captures what Boyd calls the "first draft of history," with poems serving as deep breaths between narrative essays to form a loose chronology of this unprecedented time. Karen Good Marable cranks "Whip My Hair" from the car windows during quarantine joyrides with her daughter. Deesha Philyaw ponders loneliness as she sorts Zoom meetings into those that require a bra and those that don't. Writing in the moment though not of it, Pearl Cleage reflects on what has and hasn't changed since the AIDS epidemic. Jason Reynolds harnesses heat and flavor to carry on his father's legacy. Sorrow and outrage have their say, but the stories in these pages are bright with family, music, food, and home, teaching us how to nourish ourselves and our communities. Looking ahead as much as it looks back, Bigger Than Bravery offers a window into a hopeful, complex present, establishing an essential record of how Black people in America insist on joy as an act of resistance"- Subjects: Poetry.; Essays.; Literature.; COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-; COVID-19 (Disease); COVID-19 (Disease); COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-; Black people; Black people;
