Hello All,
I'm looking to see if we can obtain a DVD set released by PBS in 2003
called This Far By Faith:
http://www.pbs.org/thisfarbyfaith/about/the_series.html
Notations on the page indicate that the DVDs can be purchased, but the
link into PBS's sales database doesn't retrieve anything and a phone
call to PBS confirmed that they no longer distribute it. (A book by the
same name is available, but no DVDs.) The production company
(Blackside) link appears to be defunct, too, although I am waiting for a
response to a query I've send to a different Blackisde Productions.
In the meanwhile, I thought I'd check to see if anyone might know of
alternate distributors for this title, or other suggestions for films
about Black American Muslims.
Thanks in advance,

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.
