Holy mackeral Andy, that is one funny presentation. It's not a Ken Burns production...YET. I like the line about the "Modified Cadillac, Coupe DeVille." The violin music and the narration is fantastic.Are we sure this was a parody? Didn't PBS run this a while back during African history month?

Man that is some hilarious stuff! Yep, the riots of the mid 60's were part of the "Blackout" no doubt.

The person or persons behind it are very talented. It would be great to see them marketthatshort filmas well as make more of them. There is a desperate need for quality media productions that mock and expose the establishment media.

I know I'd pay to see some more of it, especially something longer, say 15 or 30 minutes. That would be great.

I think they just photoshoped helmets on the old Negro League baseball players. You can download the movie by right clicking. I think Sullivan's letter home is great, probably my favorite part. Gordan Cooper and Buzz Aldrin could pass for white?
