American Monochrome 2022

Directed by Idris Aleshinloye

"American Monochrome" is a powerful story of identity, resilience, and transformation. In this video, discover how one Afro-American artist navigated 40 years of being Black in Germany facing cultural challenges, racial barriers, and ultimately building a life of meaning and impact in a foreign land. From Berlin to small towns, this honest reflection explores what it means to grow, adapt, and thrive in a place that didn’t always feel like home. If you're interested in the Black experience in Europe, expat life, or stories of long-term resilience abroad this is a must-watch.
