America Beyond The Color Line (Widescreen)

"America Beyond The Color Line" - Professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. travels to major cities in the U.S. to look at the black community's role in several key sectors of American society. The four episodes will travel to the East Coast to explore black leadership in politics and academia; the South to look at the legacy of the civil rights era and the region's dramatic social revolution; California to examine the cultural industries of black America -- movies, music, sports and the media; and Chicago, where a quarter of black Americans still live under the poverty line and feels politically, socially and economically disenfranchised.
