Louis Gossett Jr. takes viewers through a celebration of the groundbreaking achievements of African-American performers and their contributions to Hollywood. Gazing at the outstanding range of African-American stars on today's movie screens, it is hard to imagine a time when there were no black leading men or women, when roles available for people of color were considerably less heroic than they are now. Social progress came in small steps on the silver screen; now we honor their struggles, their talent and their sacrifices. From the jaw-dropping athleticism of dancers like Bill ""Bojangles"" Robinson to the amazing singing of Lena Horne, Ethel Waters and Dorothy Dandridge.
