Publisher [Alexandria, Va.] : PBS Home Video, c1997
Summary: The program presents Franklin's life as emblematic of the evolution of 20th-century African Americans. He began in a small, all-black Oklahoma town. His father relocated the family to Tulsa, but racists burned down their neighborhood. Through unstinting work and determination, Franklin made it to graduate school at Harvard University. But Harvard wouldn't let him live in a dormitory. In the 1950s, as the civil rights movement burgeoned, Franklin helped Thurgood Marshall win the crucial Brown v. The BoardofEducation desegregation case and marched with Martin Luther King Jr.

The Road to Brown [videorecording]: The Untold Story of "The Man Who Killed Jim Crow" /
University of Virginia.
Publisher San Francisco, Calif. : California Newsreel, c1990.
Summary: The story of segregation and the brilliant legal campaign against it which helped to launch the Civil Rights movement. Also a moving and long-overdue tribute to a daring but little known Black lawyer, Charles Hamilton Houston - "the man who killed Jim Crow". Charles Houston, Dean of Howard University Law School, realized that an attack on the legal basis of segregated education would undermine Jim Crow. In a taut constitutional detective story, the video untangles the cases that led to the landmark 1954 Brown vs. BoardofEducation decision. Finally, the video revisits the "New South" of integrated schools and black elected officials. Though much has changed, America still has far to go along the road to equality and social justice.
