BIRTH OF BLACK FILMS

This film series deals with the birth of  independent Black Films and their impact on America.  Long overlooked  and under praised, the race films of the 1920s through the 1950s are the  bedrock on which today’s Black film art is built. Their existence is a  tribute to the ingenuity, perseverance of people who recognized the  power of a medium they were locked out of and then successfully  harnessed some of that power for themselves. It take us on a journey of  the early years of black film introducing us to the pioneers, the studio  owners, producers, directors and actors who created a viable  black-owned industry.


These films ran the gamut from drama and  horror to romance and lavish musicals. There have been attempts to  examine segments of the journey of black film, but  our documentary  film, is a comprehensive look at race films like never before through  the 20 year research and collection of the late author and film  historian, Larry Richards. The series is hosted by his wife Beverly  Richards.
