Bison4lLife post of the day: At Howard University, Young studied under Haile Gerima and soaked up the work of DPs who came before him. “Ernest Dickerson, who was Spike Lee’s preferred cinematographer, went to Howard,” he said. “Arthur Jafa, who was Spike’s cinematographer on Crooklyn and was Julie Dash’s cinematographer on Daughters Of The Dust, went to Howard. Malik Sayeed, the incredible, talented, gifted god of lighting black folk, went to Howard as well. It was a treasure chest of references for me to imitate, mimic, and pay homage to. My training was geared toward exposing my community — this particular community.” Lewis Flip Barnes
