- 1 film reel (59 min.) : sd. b&w.; 16 mm.
- Summary
- Surveys the accomplishments of the civil rights movement during the year after the dramatic Selma-to-Montgomery march and the ensuing voting rights act of 1965, as observed in the status of tenant farmers whose average earnings are less than $1,000 per year, and who live in constant debt to white plantation owners and the company store. Asserts that rural Blacks are no less hungry, no better educated, and no more powerful politically than they were one year before. Urges that the federal government create more jobs, allocate poverty funds more equitably, and police the Agriculture Department more effectively.
