Timeline

1950

Imruh Bakari (Ishaq Imruh Bakari) is a film maker and writer born in 1950 on St Kitts, who is also referred to as Imruh Bakari Caesar or Imruh Caesar.

He currently teaches Film Studies at the University of Winchester.

He works in the UK and a number of African countries in the area of culture and the creative industries.

Bakari worked in film and theatre projects in Bradford at the Art College and then attended the UK National Film and Television School.

1958

This documented the history of immigration from the Caribbean to the UK from the Second World War until the 1958 Notting Hill riots.

1970

During the 1970s, he worked at the Keskidee Arts Centre, where his performances included the lead role in the first production of Alem Mezgebe's Pulse in 1977, directed by Rufus Collins.

1974

He worked with Menelik Shabazz on Step Forward Youth (1974), which documented the lives of black youth in Britain, and in 1982 on Burning an Illusion and the short Blood Ah Go Run.

Bakari formed Kuumba Productions with Menelik Shabazz and Henry Martin, and was a founder member of Ceddo Film and Video Workshop, an outlet for new young, primarily black, talent.

1981

His graduation film was Riots and Rumours of Riots in 1981.

The film looked at that period against the background of the 1981 riots in the UK.

He has also published the collections of poetry Sounds & Echoes (Karnak House, 1981), Secret Lives (Bogle-L'Ouverture Publications, 1986), and Without Passport or Apology (Smokestack Books, 2017).

He has performed his work on London's Southbank Centre.

1983

Bakari produced I Am Not Two Islands (1983) for Channel 4.

1985

He then made Street Warriors in 1985, and The Mark of the Hand in 1986 for the Arts Council of Great Britain on the work of Caribbean artist Aubrey Williams.

The latter "was a pioneering work and to this day, sympathetic and sensitive documentary film studies of Black British artists, such as Mark of the Hand, remain a rarity. One hugely important aspect of the film is the exploration of Williams’ respect and fondness for the indigenous peoples of the Guyana interior. In this regard, the film positively complicates and challenges assumed notions of Caribbean identity."

In 1985, Bakari worked on Compound Images, Coming Up for Air, and The Balmyard in 1986 with Don Kinch's Staunch Poets and Players.

Bakari writes on African and Caribbean cinema and the creative industries.
