Lecture:  "Tracing Our Roots:  Oklahoma's Historically Black Towns Tour."

The presentation features rare film footage of rural black communities in the late 1920's shot by an African American minister, Reverend S.S. Jones of Muskogee, OK.  Some of which was featured at a recent Association of Moving Images Archivist Conference by Yale University Archivist.  The Oklahoma Historical Society is the only other institution that owns this film footage.
