Heres a powerful one-minute PSA from the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) Special Contribution Fund, of which 34 seconds are devoted to a rapid-fire delivery of photos (1-2 frames per photo) of numerous events from 1909 (the year of the civil rights organizations founding) to the point this PSA was made, from old sharecropper homes to colored facilities, to voter registration drives, to the fight for jobs and medical access, to integration of the military, to education, to housing, to the present day (1978) - ending with a shot of a black man and his young son, and where to contact.

About The Museum of Classic Chicago Television:
The MCCTv (FuzzyMemoriesTV) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit whose primary mission is the preservation and display of off-air, early home videotape recordings (70s to early 80s, mostly) recorded off of TV (in Chicago or other cities now too); things which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. If you have any old 1970s videotapes recorded off of TV please email: tapes@fuzzy.tv We preserve the entire broadcasts in our archives - the complete programs with breaks (or however much is present on the tape), for historical preservation. For information on how to help in our mission, to donate or lend tapes to be converted to digital, please e-mail tapes@fuzzy.tv Thank you for your help!")
