The film was developed and executive produced by Carol Ann Abrams. Much of the movie was filmed on location at Central High School. The film had its world premiere at Little Rock Central High School, with an introduction by President-Elect of the United States Bill Clinton. It aired on the Disney Channel on January 17, 1993. Later that year, A.M.L. Productions and the Disney Channel received a Peabody Award for presenting "a story which reminds adults and teaches children about the courageous steps taken toward the elimination of discrimination in American society". Reception: The movie generally gained positive reception from viewers. It is often shown in schools to teach students about the Little Rock Nine. In an interview given by young reporters from Arkansas, Ernest Green explained that the movie portrayed his year at Central High very accurately, highlighting the highs and lows of that year and bringing to light the most challenging and triumphant parts.

Bright Road is a 1953 low-budget film adapted from the Christopher Award-winning short story "See How They Run" by Mary Elizabeth Vroman. Directed by Gerald Mayer and featuring a nearly all-black cast, the film stars Dorothy Dandridge as an idealistic first-year elementary school teacher trying to communicate with a problem student. The film is also notable as the first appearance by Harry Belafonte, who costars as the principal of the school. Bright Road was groundbreaking for its positive and realistic depiction of Black professionals in a time when such portrayals were rare in Hollywood. Dandridge had been attracted to the lack of racial conflict in the story. She wrote that she was "profoundly fond of ... a theme which showed that beneath any color skin, people were simply people. I had a feeling that themes like this might do more real good than the more hard-hitting protest pictures. I wanted any black girl in the audience to look at me performing in this film and be able to say to herself, 'Why, this schoolteacher could be me.'" Alongside schoolteacher Jane Richards (Dorothy Dandridge) is Principal Williams (Harry Belafonte), who provides support as Jane seeks to inspire and uplift her students. The film is a touching portrayal of perseverance, the power of education, and the impact of dedicated Black educators on young lives. Synopsis: A young teacher helps a troubled student who's fascinated by a caterpillar's metamorphosis. After losing his sister and facing challenges, he proves himself by handling a bee crisis at school. Plot: A drama starring Dorothy Dandridge as a dedicated teacher in a rural African American community. The film explores her struggles and triumphs as she aims to inspire her young students, confronting societal challenges along the way. Review: "Bright Road" is a film that Hollywood decided to present with an almost all black cast, something that was not done often prior to the fifties and the arrival of such stars as Dorothy Dandridge, Harry Belafonte, and the man that would make it all possible for other performers of color: Sidney Poitier! The story is simple, and yet, it speaks volumes of what a good teacher can do to inspire the young people in her charge. Jane Richards is such a person. She sees the good bottled inside C.T. Young, the rebellious poor boy that, deep inside, is a wonderful youngster who has had no luck with other teachers in the school, who have made him repeat two years and haven't really seen the potential in him. Dorothy Dandridge makes a sweet, yet firm Jane Richards. She was a star that could do anything, as proved by her other films, most notably in "Carmen Jones". She was a beautiful presence in this film, who with her positive attitude changes and inspires her students. Tall and handsome Harry Belafonte is seen as the Principal in his screen debut. Dandridge and Belafonte are an attractive duo when they are onscreen together. Philip Hepburn played C.T. Young with conviction for such a small child. Bright Road showcases an inspiring tale of hope, resilience, and transformation. Through powerful performances and a compelling narrative, the film explores the challenges of education, love, and growth. CT's journey, symbolized by a caterpillar’s metamorphosis, reminds us of the importance of second chances and personal change. Don't miss this rare and beautiful moment in Black cinema history, a film whose message resonates as much today as it did in 1953. "Bright Road" is a charming film thanks to Ms. Dandridge and the direction of Mr. Mayer. We do not own the rights to any of this film.

Freedom Song is a 2000 biographical made-for-television drama film based on true stories of the Civil Rights Movement in Mississippi in the 1960s. It tells the story of the struggle of African Americans to register to vote in the fictional town of Quinlan. In the midst of the Freedom Summer, a group of high school students in the small town are eager to make grassroots changes in their own community. The young activists meet resistance not only from white southerners, but from their parents, who have experienced firsthand the violence that can result from speaking out. As high school students band together with the support of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, they make strides in registering African American voters and gaining awareness for their cause. The film was made for television and released on February 27, 2000, on the TNT TV channel in the United States. It was written and directed by Phil Alden Robinson and co-written by Stanley Weiser. Winner of the Image Award, Writers Guild of America award, and Golden Gate Award, it stars Danny Glover, Vicellous Reon Shannon, and Vondie Curtis-Hall. Storyline: A tale about a young man's struggle for equality and justice and basic American rights in 1960s Mississippi and the harrowing ordeals people wanting the same opportunities endured, before Blacks were allowed to vote, and when they did sit-ins at White establishments. The young man, Owen (Vicellous Reon Shannon), is at odds with his father Will (Danny Glover) who is afraid his son's anti-segregation activities will jeopardize the family's livelihood and safety. Review: "Freedom Song" is a surprising, powerful, emotional, sometimes funny, always honest look at the civil rights movement. This is a wonderfully told story. It focuses mostly on teenagers, and it's fascinating. This film is an impressive re-telling of how the non-violent emphasis within that movement led to its eventual success. Carole King's "Song of Freedom" is a great anthem for the film. America is a deeply racist nation, so unsurprisingly there is a lot of bigotry in this movie. Everyone should have a right to vote. No matter what race or ethnic group. America was based on freedom and liberty at its founding, but white Americans didn't extend that same freedom and liberty to the hundreds of thousands of black people they held in slavery. I live in Alabama and right now in May 2026 white people are doing their very best to diminish the power of the black vote and deny African Americans political representation in Alabama and across the South. In May 1963, Birmingham, Alabama became infamous for its use of fire hoses and police dogs on marching African American students during the civil rights protests against segregation. Black people were beaten bloody in Selma, Alabama in 1965 simply for marching for the right to vote. The Supreme Court has dismantled the ensuing Voting Rights Act of 1965. In 2026 in Montgomery, Alabama, the site of the 1955-56 Bus Boycott, 70 years later, amid protests, flooding and evacuations, the Alabama Legislature passed special election bills that produce a racial gerrymander. The struggle continues... We do not own the rights to any of this film. This film is being used for historical and educational purposes only. No copyright infringement intended. Black Excellence:

Quadroon (1971), also known as The Color of Truth, is a low-budget historical drama and early blaxploitation film set in 1830s New Orleans and starring Kathrine McKee. Directed by Jack Weis, the film explores the racial caste system of the antebellum South through the story of a "quadroon" woman (a person of one-quarter Black and three-quarters White ancestry) living as an enslaved person. It is noted for being one of the first blaxploitation films to focus on slavery, predating more famous and high-budget "slavesploitation" movies like Mandingo (1975) and Drum (1976). Quadroon is a landmark film that confronts the harsh realities of race, identity, and forbidden love in the pre-Civil War American South. The 1971 exploitation film Quadroon was filmed and set on location in New Orleans, Louisiana. The production featured scenes in the French Quarter and surrounding areas, focusing on the 1830s antebellum era and the historical "plaçage" system. Theme: Set in 19th-century Louisiana, Quadroon follows a young creole woman of mixed heritage whose life is shaped by rigid racial caste systems and unjust social hierarchies. As love, loyalty, and family collide, she must navigate a society determined to define her worth by bloodlines rather than humanity. The film exposes the emotional cost of racism while highlighting resilience, dignity, and the struggle for self-determination. Although the acting and production may be subpar, this emotionally charged period drama remains an important cinematic milestone that challenged audiences to confront America’s racial past with honesty and emotional depth. It is a socially significant story dealing with the complicated history of race and caste in America. Storyline: The story follows Caleb, a young Yankee from Boston who arrives in New Orleans and loses his money in a gambling match against a cruel slaveholder named Monsieur Dupree. To support himself, Caleb becomes a tutor for young women of mixed race who are being raised to become "erudite concubines" for wealthy white men. He falls in love with one of his students, Coral (Kathrine McKee), but finds himself in conflict with Dupree, who intends to purchase her at an auction. We do not own the rights to any of this film.

Siberia. Endless vastness – arctic temperatures. Even farther East than Japan and 5 000 kilometres north of Vladivostok lies Yakutia, the coldest republic of Russia. Yakutsk is the capital of the Yakutia republic and is located about 5100 kilometres east of Moscow. In the midst of it: Oimjakon. With its 500 residents the coldest inhabited place on earth. This village lies in a mountain valley on the upper reaches of the banks of the Indgirka River. One of the major reasons for the freezing temperatures is the great distance from the Atlantic Ocean and the humidity that the Ocean provides to a major part of the Northern Hemisphere. Masses of mountains shield Siberia against the warm air from the west and south, while in the opposite direction, the door to the Artic stands wide open. Thus in the winter, cold masses of air expand into the Siberian landscape completely unrestricted. The average temperature in winter: Minus 40° Celsius. The children of the Siberian Oimjakon have the world`s coldest way to school. The extreme living conditions are completely normal for the residents of Oymyakon. This is also true for the Tariks family and their son Aljosha. He is 8 years old. The children of his age group are only excused from attending school on account of the cold at temperatures below minus 54° degrees. Even before his departure for school Aljosha feels the grim cold. Lacking running water the house also has no bathroom. So Aljosha alredy has to go outside – to the unheated outside earth closet in the garden. Sascha’s mother cooks tea. In order to do so, she must go to outside to the front of the house, which is made of wood- as all houses in Oymyakon. Due to the great temperature differences here, concrete walls would soon crack and be destroyed. In the short summers, it can get quite warm in Oymyakon. In front of the wooden house the ice blocks are stored. The next-door farmer had cut out of the frozen river for them. There is no running water in the Pole of Cold, with temperatures dropping to -65 degrees Celsius; no pipe work has a chance. Aljoshas mother puts the ice in the pot and cooks some tea for her son. Like every day, Aljosha must get ready to go to school. Like the majority of the other students, Sascha wears for the most part his traditional dress. The clothing prescribes to the onion-peel principle in order to protect the students from the Artic temperatures. His mother Irina has heated up the living room to 20° degrees. So when Aljosha opens the front door it is 70° degrees colder – every day life in Oimjakon. As soon as the children open the dormitory’s double doors, the icy cold brutally grabs hold of them. Within less than one second their nostrils become frozen. Unlike the students in other parts of the world, the children from Oymyakon are seldom playful but instead very concentrated on their way to school. With quick steps, they travel in groups, attempting to put the 2 kilometer route behind them as quickly as possible. There are no signs of snow ball fights. The don’t spend a second of time watching the cows, which are kept up to nine months of the year in their stalls, and are now coincidentally being lead out of the barn for a drink. Even though the cows are wearing some sort of special “bras” which protect their udders from freezing. Once in school building, Aljosha and the other students remove many of their layers of clothing, and get going with the school lessons. For the majority of them, a welcome diversion from the coldest inhabited town on the earth.

The shocking true story of Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, two wealthy college students who murdered a 14-year-old boy in 1924 to prove they were smart enough to get away with it. Official Website: | When Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, two well-educated college students from a wealthy suburb of Chicago, confessed to the brutal murder of 14-year-old Bobby Franks, the story made headlines across the country. The unlikely killers not only admitted their guilt, but also bragged that they had committed the crime simply for the thrill of it. As the sensational case unfolded during the summer of 1924, with famed defense attorney Clarence Darrow and Cook County Prosecutor Robert Crowe debating the death penalty and scores of commentators weighing in from the sidelines, the question of motive would be turned over and over again. What first seemed like a simple matter of evil gradually would give way to a complex assessment of the murderers' minds and a searing indictment of the forces that had shaped them, and set off a national debate about morality and capital punishment. © 2016 WGBH Educational Foundation 00:00 Prologue 04:28 Nabbing the Killers 09:38 The Confessions 14:41 Gods and Monsters 16:31 An Unholy Alliance 21:52 Enter Darrow 24:43 Preparing the Case 29:02 A Sensational Turnabout 31:15 The Hearing 39:02 Closing Arguments 44:53 The Decision 48:34 Epilogue This program is made possible by viewers like you.
