FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Rahiem Shabazz Launches RahiemShabazz.com and Exclusive Digital App as the Definitive Hub for Films, Books, and Appearances in 2026

Atlanta, GA -January 2026 – As the world steps into a new year marked by reflection, transformation, and renewed purpose, acclaimed filmmaker, author, and social justice advocate Rahiem Shabazz officially announces the launch of RahiemShabazz.com, alongside an exclusive digital app, creating a powerful one-stop destination for all things Rahiem Shabazz.

Launching in 2026, the platform is designed as a centralized hub where audiences can access Shabazz’s growing body of work -including films, documentaries, books, public appearances, and exclusive content—all in one immersive ecosystem. More than a website, RahiemShabazz.com and its companion app represent a direct connection between the creator and his global audience, free from gatekeepers and limitations.

At the heart of the platform is a streaming hub dedicated to all Rahiem Shabazz documentaries, offering viewers unfiltered access to stories rooted in truth, resistance, redemption, and Black identity. The platform will also serve as the official source for new releases, announcements, live events, behind-the-scenes content, and future original productions.

“2026 is about ownership, clarity, and legacy,” said Rahiem Shabazz. “This platform allows me to tell our stories on our terms, while giving supporters direct access to the work -past, present, and future.”

The exclusive app experience expands the vision even further, offering subscribers premium access, early releases, special screenings, and curated content unavailable anywhere else. Together, the website and app establish RahiemShabazz.com as a digital headquarters for storytelling that challenges narratives and sparks dialogue.

As the new year begins, the launch signals a bold step forward, not just for Rahiem Shabazz as a creator, but for audiences seeking authentic, uncompromising content rooted in lived experience and cultural truth.

RahiemShabazz.com will be live in 2026.

Filed under DVD, Necessary Blackness Podcast, Podcast

In the latest episode of Necessary Blackness, Rahiem Shabazz sits down with film director, Amadeuz Christ, to discuss his documentary, “Out of Darkness,” which examines the untold history of African people and the African cultural contribution to the nations of the world. In his latest documentary, “Heavy Is The Crown” explores the African origins of the world’s major religions by examining the “original mythological story” that has served as the basis for spiritual systems across the planet, and arguably even the concept of the “western drama” itself

My Views On “The Woman King”

Filed under DVD, Film Festival, Necessary Blackness Podcast, WTF

The Woman King follows Nanisca (Davis), the general of the Dahomey Amazons, and Nawi (Mbedu), an ambitious recruit in the Kingdom of Dahomey. The film will depict how the pair “fought enemies who violated their honor, enslaved their people, and threatened to destroy everything they have lived for. This is a false narrative created by Hollywood.

“The growth of Dahomey coincided with the growth of the Atlantic slave trade, and it became known to Europeans as a major supplier of slaves. As a highly militaristic kingdom constantly organized for warfare, it captured children, women, and men during wars and raids against neighboring societies, and sold them into the Atlantic slave trade in exchange for European goods such as rifles, gunpowder, fabrics, cowrie shells, tobacco, pipes, and alcohol. Other remaining captives became slaves in Dahomey, where they worked on royal plantations and were routinely mass executed in large-scale human sacrifices during the festival celebrations known as the Annual Customs of Dahomey.”

Check out the video where I go into depth on the screenwriter, director, and cinematographer being all non-black. I also touch on how the inclusion of the LBGQT agenda will possibly be infused in the storyline.
