This documentary provides an in-depth examination of the history and contributions of African-American newspapers, which have existed in almost every major city in the United States since the early 1800s. The program gives life to this fascinating, little-known history by weaving interviews with editors, photographers and journalists of the black press with archival footage, photographs and the music of Grammy award-winning jazz artist Ron Carter. Stage, screen and television actor Joe Morton narrates the film.
