Talk:Eyes on the Prize

Untitled
This is one of the most important films in US history and it is shameful that the copyright holders can't give this one up for the common good. Every student in the US (at least) should view and analyze this movie at least once if not multiple times throught their educational life.

 * The issue is related to the original agreement related to the stock footage used in the documentary, which belongs to various sources. I think there's general interest in keeping the film alive, as it were, but in a lot of ways it's a lot like changing software liscences for things with distributed ownership. tycho garen (talk) 15:12, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

is this documentary based on the non-fiction book of the same name by Juan Williams? if so, he should be menioned or see also'ed in this article.

 * The book was created as a companion to the series. The article has been edited to reflect this.Christopher Busta-Peck | Talk 14:13, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Henry Hampton Collection
The materials used to make the film are housed with the Henry Hampton Collection[] at Washington University in St. Louis's [Film and Media Archive]. As of summer 2008, full transcripts of the interviews conducted for the first six episodes of Eyes on the Prize are available online[]. tycho garen (talk) 15:12, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Eyes on the Screen
I moved the Controversies section out to its own article (referenced from this article, of course), because it addressed only a response to the copyright issues surrounding distribution of the series. I felt the passage detracted from the main subject of the article and so warranted a split. -- ke4roh (talk) 03:28, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

Moved old "Episode" list to talk page
New article for the two seasons of Eyes on the Prize will need to be created to go into greater detail for each season, then subsequently for each episode. This is an attempt to bring the Eyes on the Prize article into greater conformity with the standards established by other television program articles.
