Thomas Mann and RJ Cyler star in this coming-of-age drama directed by Alfonso Gomez-Rejon. Greg and Earl (Mann and Cyler) are high school students who spend their time making their own versions of classic movies. Greg makes it his high school purpose to not belong to any one group, but to have a small role to play in each and every clique. When Greg's mother (Connie Britton) tells him that a girl from his class, Rachel (Olivia Cook), has been diagnosed with leukemia, she convinces her son to pay her a friendly visit. As Greg tries to get to know Rachel and provide her with a comforting shoulder to cry on, the two end up forming a unique bond of friendship and provide each other with much-needed love and affection.

Nineteenth-century stoneware by enslaved and free potters living in Edgefield, South Carolina, highlights the central role of Black artists in the region's long-standing pottery traditions Recentering the development of industrially scaled Southern pottery traditions around enslaved and free Black potters working in the mid-nineteenth century, this catalogue presents groundbreaking scholarship and new perspectives on stoneware made in and around Edgefield, South Carolina. Among the remarkable works included are a selection of regional face vessels as well as masterpieces by enslaved potter and poet David Drake, who signed, dated, and incised verses on many of his jars, even though literacy among enslaved people was criminalized at the time. Essays on the production, collection, dispersal, and reception of stoneware from Edgefield offer a critical look at what it means to collect, exhibit, and interpret objects made by enslaved artisans. Several featured contemporary works inspired by or related to Edgefield stoneware attest to the cultural and historical significance of this body of work, and an interview with acclaimed contemporary artist Simone Leigh illuminates its continued relevance.
