About this film

On September 18, 1965, this concluding program in the History of the Negro People was taped at the Carnegie Endowment International Center in New York City. An invited audience of distinguished persons in the fields of international relations, education and civil rights witnessed, and participated in the event, making it a uniquely fitting capstone to the massive two-year project. National Educational Television invited panelists from Africa, Brazil, Britain and the United States to sum up, as it were, the entire series, and to speculate on the future of the Negro people.
