Tongues Untied
Marlon Riggs, with the support of other homosexual Black men, notably the poet Essex Hemphill, celebrates the revolutionary act of Black men loving Black men. The film intercuts footage of Hemphill reciting his poetry, Riggs telling the story of his childhood, scenes of men engaging in social interaction and dance, and various comic riffs, such as a visit to the "Institute of Snap!thology," where men learn how to snap their fingers: the sling snap, the point snap, and the diva snap.
