Black Jonestown

Black Jonestown is a storytelling and documentary channel dedicated to honoring the Black members of the People’s Temple — those who lived, died, and those who survived the tragedy in Jonestown, Guyana on 11/18/1978 This channel reclaims their narrative. Through historical storytelling, interviews with survivors, and documentary-style reflections, Black Jonestown explores their lives, their roots, and the social and spiritual movements that led them from California to the jungles of Guyana. Here, we honor their humanity, their strength, and their enduring impact on Black American history.
