VHS : I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
Have never memorized a poem, but her brother could.
When Oliver asks for "more" our hearts are with him.
Maya Angelou says that they deserve more.
Her autobiographical description of being raped as a young girl and her
recovery is inspiring. I don't think a black class war on all white establishment efforts is right either.
I believe from my own experience that blacks do deserve more.
The black heritage is important to our culture.
It is by the vitality ... Read More:

VHS : Malcolm X (2pc)
I could easily have given this movie five stars on the acting alone. But I had to take out one star for a few inaccuracies in the movie plus the movie left out certain elements in his life that I felt were important(like his speech to the Africans in Africa that the blacks in America had the same struggle that they had) but dont mistake my tone because I still recommend it flaws and all.

Malcolm X details the life of the controversial yet charismatic figure that sought to deal with the injustices ... Read More:

But in the meantime can ONLY be found on a Out Of Print (And expensive) VHS (Video Tape). Like the Movie "Sparkle" there was NEVER a Soundtrack Album released???? BOTH would be nice (Even in CD Format). A First Class Movie that is well deserving of being released on DVD Format. Strange there wasn't even a sequel....It's still not too late to gather these great actors to do a 2007/2008 sequel.....Something SOMEONE should think about. This is worth hunting down...Just make sure you save your $$$$ because the one's ... Read More:

VHS : Freedom Road
In High School I had to read Howard Fast's novel "Freedom Road" and thought it was very good and had me reading it in one setting. I watched the "mini-series" when it came on, and while I enjoyed it I felt the acting wasn't very good and felt that Muhammad Ali wasn't quite ready to be an actor and wasn't the best choice to play in this. Other than the acting(I felt the whole cast wasn't into the movie like they should have been) that this was just fine.

I Think this was a good comedy and it has a good storyline too.

VHS : Just an Old Sweet Song
I saw this movie many years ago, and am hoping that it will be released on DVD in the near future. It opens with a family awaiting a visit from the maternal grandmother who lives in the deep south. The family resides in an inner city apartment building. Thought the family is intact (two loving, employed parents), there is a hint of problems with the elder son who is being influenced by the wrong elements. Due to problems with the grandmother's health, the entire family ends up going fro a two week visit to the small ... Read More:

VHS : Death of a Prophet:Final Days Malcolm
Malcolm X is an essential figure in American history and Morgan Freeman is fine actor, but this movie just didn't work for me. If you know the basic story and events of his life, this movie doesn't really tell you anything new. Why make a movie of only the last 24 hours of his life? There is so much to be learned in the years before that. I recommend the Spike Lee film and the Autobiography of Malcolm X instead. They will tell you much more about the dimension of the man than this short film can.
