Videos:

This Far by Faith: African-American Spiritual Journeys. Boston: PBS Video, 2003.
Documents the African-American religious experience during the last three centuries from the early African slaves, through the Civil War, Reconstruction, Jim Crow, the Great Depression, the Civil Rights Era, and into the 21st century. Explores the struggle of African-Americans in their faith and how it became a force for social, political and cultural change in the United States.

The Murder of Emmett Till. Boston: PBS Home Video, 2003.
Documents the brutal 1955 murder of Emmett Till, a teen from Chicago who broke the unwritten Jim Crow South laws by whistling at a white woman in a grocery store in Money, Miss. His 2 white killers were acquitted by an all-white, all-male jury, and later sold to a journalist the story of how they killed the boy, adding momentum to the civil rights movement.

The Rise and Fall of Jim Crow. San Fransisco, CA: California Newsreel, 2002.
PBS television series of America’s segregation history, race relations, and African American Civil Rights. Jim Crow was not a person, yet affected the lives of millions of people. Named after a popular century minstrel song that stereotyped African Americans, “Jim Crow” came to personify the system of government-sanctioned racial oppression and segregation in the United States
