Brother Martin: Servant of Jesus (1942) is a race film written and directed by Spencer Williams.
Production
The film was produced in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on the grounds of St. Monica Catholic Church.[1] It featured an all-black cast and was produced exclusively for exhibition in U.S. cinemas serving African American communities. It was among a number of religious-themed feature films created by Williams during the 1940s, who also wrote and directed The Blood of Jesus (1941) and Go Down, Death! (1944).[2]
