With All Deliberate Speed

Released to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court's Brown v. Board of Education ruling of 1954, this documentary examines, via newsreel footage and interviews, the contentious historical events that led to the landmark decision. It also looks at the ways in which many Americans fought to oppose the end of racial segregation, and at integration's messy aftermath. The film includes narration by many well-known African-American actors, such as Joe Morton.
