Thank you, PBS.
Another piece of evidence for the Justice for Grace Lee Whitney campaign.
I'm hoping Videoheaven comes out as a 2-VHS set.
And hopefully this last word will help inspire a new form of public media.
Building off of that great point, the 2009 exhibit and related book "Pathways to Unknown Worlds" included a lot of drawings, photos, and ephemera: corbettvsdempsey.com/exhibitions/... and monoskop.org/images/1/17/...
And Jason!
Courtney! Willeman! Perhaps two of the top ten film archivists around though it's a close competition.
This is why we do this work. Support your local archivist.
Seems like maybe the best job possible.

A close up of the Reverend Jesse Jackson.
Here's a 1989 interview with Rev. Jackson from Eyes on the Prize II. He discusses Harold Washington, the 1972 National Black Political Convention, and much more.
Thank you, Rev. Jackson.

I see a daytime tv talk show host job in your future.
Being a vassal state with no voting rights in the country that you're subservient to is not independence.
This is why I love Library and Information Science.

We can add this new show to Star Trek's long history with media preservation. Here's an overview on the topic by Ashley Blewer: bits.ashleyblewer.com/startrek/
Great article that doubles as a powerful testament to film preservation. Kudos to Katie Trainor, Greg Pierce, and the crew at Colorlab.
Thomas Pain is his super villain persona.

Cool. And how did that door do in protecting the dwarves in Moria? Maybe the lesson is building a fortress and hiding within and cutting yourself off from the world causes you to collapse from within? Nah, that can't be what Tolkien meant.
"Never at any time was I between the police and the people they were attempting to control. Or, in the case of the soliders, not control. But they knew they were doing something wrong. It was documented. There were pictures showing what was going on. I made them. And they didn't want them. They didn't want them made. That's my opinion of what happened." Harrowing first person account from a photojournalist who was beaten for just doing his job while documenting the violence perpetrated by the state against protestors. Things never change.
You can watch the whole The Urban Crisis and the New Militants series on HBOMax.
Ends credits should have rolled over this like Lindsay Anderson's "O Lucky Man!"
First, two of the most important film preservation groups - the American Genre Film Archive and the Texas Archive of the Moving Image @texasarchive.bsky.social share an office and a mission of preserving movie history from the grind house to the home movie. www.austinchronicle.com/arts/film-pr...
Beautiful tint!
Crucial list. Thanks for including the Film Group's "Black Moderates and Black Militants."
People power! And support your local public media stations!
