Description

This fascinating documentary explores the attempts of African Americans to create non-stereotypical celluloid portrayals of their lives in the United States between 1915 and 1945. Not much was known about this era until the advent of this film, which includes interviews and film clips that bring light to this significant period in American cinema.
