| Sorry I didn't explain. It's about the black civil rights movement.
Each one is chronological (ie - they've done the beginning of the
black movement, circa 1955 [my history s*cks], for the first show).
Easy to draw paralells and get good ideas from it, if you're not
up on civil rights movements.

| 179.3 | A Really Powerful Series | BPOV09::TYRRELL | | Wed Jan 28 1987 13:05 | 11 |
| It's a very powerful statement about the history of civil rights in this
country ... one that has never been chronicled before in such a fashion. I saw
the entire six hours of film previewed at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.
The producer is Henry Hampton, who is a Boston film producer. His company is
called Blackside, and apparently they have done some work for Digital.
I strongly recommend it ... I am watching it again each week. Tonight is the
second episode - the entire project covers the period 1954 - 1965. I, too,
learned a lot ... about history and about the incredible struggle, against all
odds, that took place for just basic human rights.

I agree the series is extremely powerful. I saw the first episode
and wished I had taped the program. Tonight I plan to hook up the
VCR and tape this one.
Question????
If anyone out there happened to tape the first episode, would
it be possible to make a copy?????
I'll supply the tape!

The Woman's Rights movement has roots in the Civil Rights movement.
The show is extremely well done.

making a copy of all 6 hours of this program for me ?
I would most definitely supply the tapes and it would be greatly

| RE: .8 "Directions to 1st Parish in Bedford"
First Parish, where Henry Hampton, producer of "Eyes on the Prize"
will speak at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, February 22nd, is located right
on the common in the center of Bedford, Mass.
If you're coming from Route 128, take the exit for Routes 4 & 225
heading West. From Acton/Maynard go through Concord on Route 62.
You can't miss it, right at the set of lights in the center.
Services last about an hour, followed by coffee and discussion with
the speaker until noon. For more information, call 1st Parish,
weekday mornings at 275-7994.
