ALL-AMERICAN NEWS [1945-02-25, NO. 2]

All-American news was the first newsreels produced for a black audience. Made in the 1940s and 1950s, they were originally intended to encourage black Americans to participate in, and support the war effort, and to reflect an African-American perspective on the world and national events. Highlights of this issue include a segment about Jeri Smith, a pianist playing at Carnegie Hall, a serviceman being honored in Chicago, and filing income tax.
