- Description: WE WANT THE FUNK! Is a syncopated voyage through funk's history, from it's African and jazz roots to James Brown's early work and the rise of Parliament Funkadelic. Distinctly urban, funk reflected a post- Civil Rights sensibility. The film explores the symbiotic relationship between funk's explosion and the political and racial dynamics of 1970s inner-city America. An unapologetic expression of Black pride, resilience, and joy in the wake of the Civil Rights era. The film explores how funk's infectious grooves became a force of cultural resistance and self-determination. Packed with rare footage, legendary performances, and in-depth interviews with funk pioneers, WE WANT THE FUNK! #captures the raw energy, deep soul, and unbreakable spirit of funk. Director Stanley Nelson;Nicole London. Producer Jade Lewis.
