TitleBlack train is comingDate2011SubjectDance FilmDescription
Black Train is Coming is based on the 1926 sermon, “Death is on Your Track”, by Rev J. M. Gates, one of the most prolific black preachers in the United States. Many of his sermons were strong warnings of the hellish punishments that awaited sinners. The film blends this old time sermon with modern day Flex and Turf dance style.
