Re: [Videolib] Whites and Civil Rights ~ two from Bullfrog Films

[Elizabeth Stanley]

Hello, Nicholle,

Bullfrog Films offers two titles:  "The Long Walk to Freedom"  
http://www.bullfrogfilms.com/catalog/long.html
A story of 12 ordinary people who accomplished extraordinary things in the 
Civil Rights movement.

"Home of the Brave"  http://www.bullfrogfilms.com/catalog/hob.html
Told through the eyes of her children, this critically acclaimed film examines 
the case of Viola Liuzzo, the only white woman murdered in the Civil Rights 
Movement, and reveals why we hear so little about her. A 39-year-old mother of 
five from Detroit, she joined thousands of people in Selma, Alabama for the 
historic Voting Rights March in 1965. Shortly after it ended, she was shot in 
the head by a car full of Klansmen, while driving on a deserted highway.  J. 
Edgar Hoover immediately mounted a smear campaign to divert attention from the 
fact that a key FBI informant was in the car with Liuzzo's killers. This 
gender-based discrediting of her name has succeeded up till now in robbing 
Viola Liuzzo of her rightful place in our history.

We have trailers for both of these films on our web site.  Let me know if you 
have any questions.

Hello -
  I'm helping a patron look for documentaries that show whites working towards 
civil rights equality in the 1960s American south.  Can you provide any 
suggestions?
  We would like items that are easy to purchase and/or interlibrary loan, if 
possible.
  Thank you for any help,

Last year's doc on the The Freedom Riders (my Rabbi was one of them)
produced by WGBH is very good. That was mixed race, of course.

Also, our film YOU GOT TO MOVE is a fine film about the Highlander School,
a white-started school started in the 1930s to teach grassroots social
change. Dr. King and Rosa Parks were students there.

Best regards,

An absolutely perfect film is "Anne Braden: Southern Patriot" by Anne Lewis and 
Mimi Pickering. 

I also recommend my film "Writ Writer" about the legal work of Frances Jalet 
and William Bennett Turner, civil rights attorneys, both white, one female, the 
other male, on behalf of prisoner writ writer Fred Arispe Cruz.
