IMDb Pride Month Picks: Must-See LGBTQ+ Movies and TV Shows17 of 32
"Black Lightning" | Seasons 1-3 Available to Stream on Netflix, Season 4 Available to Stream on The CW
Plot: Jefferson Pierce has made his choice. He hung up the suit and his secret identity years ago, but with a daughter hell-bent on justice and a star student being recruited by a local gang, he'll be pulled back into the fight as the wanted vigilante and DC legend: Black Lightning.
Our Take: A Black, queer superhero who protects her community, liberates metahumans from government oppression, and fights alongside her family (set to the music of Parliament), are only a few of the reasons this show holds a special place in my heart. — Vanessa
