Scandalize My Name: Stories from the Blacklist

Please somebody start commenting on this movie... I need it to write a paper for my racism class..

Scandalize My Name provides a searing examination of how "Red Scare" politics were used to hinder America's civil rights movement. This powerful film documents the first-hand experiences of African-American performers faced with blacklists, loyalty oaths and other discrimination. It explores the impact these tactics had on the performers' careers and on civil rights as a whole. Paul Robeson, Jackie Robinson, Harry Belafonte, Ossie Davis, and Dick Campbell are just a few of the notable personalities featured. ~ Scott Albright, All Movie Guide Scandalize My Name provides a searing examination of how "Red Scare" politics were used to hinder America's civil rights movement.
