Educational story that needed to be told!, 6 September 2000
10/10
Author: Bobubas (bobubas@aol.com) from Illinois

Excellent account about the impact McCarthyism had on several of the Black Americans in Hollywood at the time. Archived video and photographs provide you with an in depth feel for what these individuals were subjected to during this tumultuous time in American history.
