Description 1 streaming video file (73 min.) Summary Olympic Pride, American Prejudice delves into the climate surrounding the courageous 18 African American athletes who carried the weight and hopes of an entire movement on their shoulders as they boarded a ship to Berlin Olympic Games in 1936 - a Nazi propaganda pageant that did not welcome their participation and considered them second class citizens. Their heroic turn at the Games became a seminal precursor to the Civil Rights Movement Credits Executive producer, Blair Underwood, Michael Draper, Deborah Riley Draper, Amy Tiemann ; cinematographer, Jonathan Hall ; editors, Sandra Christie, Pascal Akesson ; composer, Cheryl Rogers Cast Lonnie Bunch, Anita Defrantz, Harry Edwards; narrated by Blair Underwood Notes Closed-captioned; subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing (SDH) Description from landing page (Film Platform, viewed June 9, 2017) Nominated 2017 NAACP Image Awards, Image Award for Outstanding Documentary (Film) SUBJECT Olympic Games (11th : 1936 : Berlin, Germany) http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n85136486 Olympic Games. fast (OCoLC)fst01408249 Subject Olympics -- History African American athletes -- Biography Olympics -- Social aspects Racism in sports -- History Discrimination in sports -- History African American athletes.
