This is ONE AWESOME VIDEO about African American Artist from 1940-1965. The Video has Super Rare Film Footage Clips of the likes of James Baldwin, Sonia Sanchez, Ossie Davis, Arthur Mitchell, Deloris Browne Raven Wilkins and just so many. If you are a fan of James Baldwin, he is covered extensively in this video. Ricard Wright and Baldwin's relationship is explored both positive and negative. Clips of Lorraine Hansberry and her Play, Raisin in the Sun is also included.
I just don't have the words to describe the Great and Professional Job that Executive Producer, Henry Hampton, Co-Executive Producer, Sam Pollard and Producer, Tracy Heather Strain did in putting this Documentary together. If you are a student of African American History and have access to a VCR this definitely is a documentary that you should watch. FANTASTIC VIDEO!! Great for the classroom, to share with Family and Friends. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
