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.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
