Covering the Civil Rights Movement was a catalyst for a
paradigm change in documentary filmmaking and broadcast news, but
even in the most progressive corners African American filmmakers
and journalists were still excluded from telling their own stories
on film. William Greaves’ Emmy-winning news program Black Journal
provided the first platform to challenge that inexcusable omission.
Working with a predominantly African American crew, Black
Journal was an incubator for many of the independent
filmmakers that would emerge in the next decade. This program
includes pieces by Madeline Anderson, St. Clair Bourne, and many
others.

Culture in the South

Black Dance
