africans+in+america | Year: 1998 Directed: - Susan Bellows - Noland Walker - Jacquie Jones - Orlando Bagwell - Llewellyn Smith WOW! THIS HAS TO BE SEEN! You won't be the same after watching this amazing well done documentary. There are moments that will move you to tears. It's a declaration that Black American history IS AMERICAN HISTORY! How can an American go through life not knowing so many famous names like Frederick Douglass and Sojourner Truth, you don't get more American than that. EXCELLENT, a must buy! AFRICANS IN AMERICA! Originally produced for PBS in 1998, this DVD includes all four installments of this POWERFUL DOCUMENTARY! The focus here is on SLAVERY IN AMERICA, starting with JAMESTOWN in 1607 and ending with the start of the CIVIL WAR in 1861! This documentary combines FIRST-PERSON ACCOUNTS and HISTORICAL DOCUMENTS with INTERVIEWS with not only historians but the descendants of those slaves! This might be the FINEST look at America's PECULIAR INSTITUTION available on DVD! A very moving series I actually watched this series when it was on PBS a couple of years ago and it almost brought me to tears. It was incredibly sad to hear about the way that the slaves were treated. This video would be a great learning experience for classes. I am thinking about using it as an visual aide for my speech on slavery in NY. Buy Africans In America at Amazon.com Buy posters at Allposters.com Jamster - the latest ringtones for your phone!
