#UPFRONT chats with iconic filmmaker Spike Lee about 30th Anniversary of #SchoolDaze

I had the unique pleasure of interviewing the G.O.A.T of filmmaking—SPIKE LEE—for today’s edition of UPFRONT . The award-winning director, actor, producer and cinema legend was in town to promote the 30th Anniversary Screening of his film, School Daz e, which is taking place on Monday, February 19 at the Fabulous Fox Theatre. Mr. Lee stopped by the WCLK 91.9 studios to chat with me about the event and his iconic musical that originally debuted in theaters on February 12, 1988. School Daze is arguably one of the best films on HBCU life and culture and is centered on a battle between the “Wannabees” and “Jigaboos” during homecoming weekend. The film also touches on the taboo subjects of colorism and beauty standards within the Black community and features an all-star cast including Larry Fishburne, Giancarlo Esposito, Tisha Campbell-Martin, Jasmine Guy, Kadeem Hardison, Darryl M. Bell and the late Bill Nunn, Ossie Davis and Phyllis Hyman. CLICK HERE to get your tickets for the 30th
