TV in Black is an informative and entertaining history program documenting the achievements of Blacks on television. It features a multitude of professional actors, writers, producers, and entertainers expressing what it was like experiencing this evolution. The only drawback is they didn't identifying who's who speaking throughout the program. At times, the file footage was somewhat challenging to watch. But the content is extremely prevalent. I definitely appreciated and enjoyed it. I teach the history of Black Cinema, and will include this in the viewing.

Wonderful piece of Black history in entertainment--radio & TV. I remember many of these shows on the radio. It also reminded me of so much I'd forgotten and certainly underlying perspectives I had never thought of.
I only wish they would have used captions to identify every person speaking and every movie clip. I definitely want to go back and revisited Beulah Show and Louise Waters movies. Thank you so much for this piece!
