⁣1994 drama film directed by David C. Johnson and executive produced by Spike Lee via his production company 40 Acres and a Mule Filmworks. The plot depicts a team of Black people who kidnap fellow black people who they feel have betrayed their community and seek to "deprogram" them so that they will change their ways. The acronym DROP stands for "Deprogramming and Restoration of Pride". The film has been described as "[p]art thriller, part social satire".
The film was based in part on The Session, a 45-minute film Johnson produced in 1988 on a $20,000 budget, and ultimately derived from a short story by David C. Taylor titled "The Deprogrammer". Johnson described the differences between the two films as follows: "The short film was basically satire, an absurdist piece .... D.R.O.P. Squad, on the other hand, is realism. The characters have more at stake."

Drama · Political satire about an underground militant group that kidnaps Kmtyu who have sold out their race.

The islands of San Andres, Providence/Providencia, and Santa Catalina, were originally colonized by the british and therefore are more culturally similar to the other Black populated english-speaking Caribbean islands, although they are a departamento (akin to state in the u.s.) in the South "american" nation state of colombia today. This documentary shows how music brought by men who worked on the sea, connected them to other Black people and Black people music of the wider Caribbean.
