This documentary recounts the events of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre-the worst act of domestic terrorism in United States history-and the ongoing legacy of harm it caused. Hear directly from survivors and descendants of the massacre as well as community advocates on how over 100 years later the destruction of Greenwood continues to ripple through individuals, families and entire communities. To secure a brighter future, we must reckon with the whole truth of our history.

Established in 1949 to support Palestinian refugees, United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) has produced numerous films over the years. Aftermath documents UNRWA’s response to the Six Day War in 1967, where Palestinian people were displaced and dispossessed yet again nearly 20 years after the Nakba in 1948. Aftermath reflects on the exodus as seen from Jordan, where refugees fled to. Though directed by Palestinian filmmaker Samir Hissen, it is notable that the film was written and produced by Myrtle Winter, a UN diplomat who worked in the Department of Public Information at UNRWA. Aftermath documents an emergency camp set up by the government of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, which, with the scale of displaced people, was continually short of tents. A recurring feature of relief agency films is that we do not hear Palestinian voices.
Vancouver is a veritable metropolis, a beautiful cosmopolitan city; perhaps the most English in all the entire Dominion of Canada. It is famous for its wonderful forests, lovely drives, beautiful gardens and the finest private estates in all Canada. There is shown a water-wheel turned by the water from a spring from which the table water for Queen Victoria's own use was furnished and sent all the way to England because of its purity. There are many Scottish societies in Vancouver. Mr. Holmes takes you to witness an unusually fine series of athletic events and the awarding of prizes to the winners of the Highland dances. Such Scottish games as tossing the caber, tug of war and the like are also shown. Charming young ladies do the Highland Fling and the Sword Dance.

The ascent of Mont Blanc in four Pathe Baby reels. The film is a short version of the 1907 'L'ascension du Mont Blanc'. It shows the ascent of Mont Blanc from Chamonix by a party of guides and clients. The team assembles in front of the statue of De Saussure and Balmat in Chamonix. The mountaineers climb by a succession of snowfields, almost perpendicular glaciers, crossing the crevasses using a ladder. From Grands Mulets, the ascent continues by the glacier, and finally, after two days of travel since they left Chamonix, the team reaches the Vallot Observatory and later the Jansen Observatory, half buried in snow, on the summit of Mont Blanc.
Above the Clouds in Rainier National Park shows a two-day climb from Paradise Inn to the summit of Mt. Rainier. The film was produced by the Kodak Cinegraph to be sold and rented in 16mm format for the domestic market. The footage may be from the early twenties or a bit before and the film was released prior to 1926.
Views of a party making the actual ascent of this famous mountain have a much greater interest than the usual scenic film. Commencing with the departure of the party from Pierre Pointue, at the altitude of 5,750 feet, chasms and glaciers interrupt a slow progress until a blizzard enforces a halt. At the Vallot Observatory, 14,000 feet above the sea level, the formation of clouds is wonderful to behold. Beautiful photographic effects are obtained, and the final snow-clad peak stands out in grandeur. The view of the cloud-banks drifting through the defiles and the pictures taken from above the clouds are full of beauty and interest.

When Allied forces liberated the Nazi concentration camps in 1944-45, their terrible discoveries were recorded by army and newsreel cameramen, revealing for the first time the full horror of what had happened. Making use of British, Soviet and American footage, the Ministry of Information’s Sidney Bernstein (later founder of Granada Television) aimed to create a documentary that would provide lasting, undeniable evidence of the Nazis’ unspeakable crimes. He commissioned a wealth of British talent, including editor Stewart McAllister, writer and future cabinet minister Richard Crossman – and, as treatment advisor, his friend Alfred Hitchcock. Yet, despite initial support from the British and US Governments, the film was shelved, and only now, 70 years on, has it been restored and completed by Imperial War Museums under its original title "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey".
