The one, the only, the mighty ... Pam Grier. This week the Black Star podcast pays tribute to the figurehead of the Blaxploitation movement: a star who became one of the only black women to take the fight to the men in the action genre. We also track Blaxploitation's influence, from the hip hop of Snoop Dogg and the Geto Boys to the genre's late-90s resurgence thanks - in part - to Quentin Tarantino. The Pam Grier episode of Black Star contained short clips from the following: - Foxy Brown, directed by Jack Hill and released in 1974 by American International Pictures - Coffy, directed by Jack Hill and released in 1973 by American International Pictures - Original Gangstas, directed by Larry Cohen and released in 1996 by Orien Pictures - Jackie Brown, directed by Quentin Tarantino and released in 1997 by A Band Apart, Mighty Mighty Aphrodite Productions, Laurence Bender Productions and Miramax. - Black Dynamite, directed by Scott Sanders and released in 2009 by ARS Nova and Apparition And a clip from the Fox TV show Empire, first broadcast in 2015 and released by Imagine Television, Lee Daniels Entertainment, Danny Strong Productions, Little Chicken Inc and 20th Century Fox Television.
