Marking a watershed moment in American politics, Shirley Chisholm was the first black woman to run for a presidential nomination, and in doing so became a true
voice of the people.
She stood on an openly liberal platform that defended the causes of the poor, the young, gays, minorities, and other marginalized Americans. Facing a more powerful and often bigoted opposition, Chisholm nonetheless won over a surprisingly large and vocal amount of support with her determination and refusal to kow-tow to the status quo. Eventually defeated by Senator George McGovern--viewed by many Democrats as the more
electable
candidate--she managed a few coups along the way, and remains an inspiration in markedly conservative times. This documentary is a stirring assemblage of archival footage, Chisholm`s commentary both then and now, and interviews with supporters and opponents, as well as luminaries such as Black Panther founder Bobby Seale, authors Susan Brownmiller and Octavia Butler, author and activist Amiri Baraka (then LeRoi Jones), former Congressmen Reverend Walter Fauntroy and Ronald Dellums, and journalist/ historian Paula Giddings. The film is set to a compelling soundtrack of music contemporary with Chisholm`s race.

The best-selling novel THE DA VINCI CODE suggests that within Da Vinci's artistic works were clues that answer an ancient religious conspiracy. CRACKING THE DA VINCI CODE features experts such as Clive Prince and Lynn Picknett, authors of THE TEMPLAR REVELATIONS, who share the belief that although he used their book as a source to craft his extraordinary tale, Brown did not access all of their pertinent research. Both Stephen Hoeller, a religion and Gnostic history expert, and Mar Oxbrow, a Templar and Rosslyn Chapel expert, correct some of Brown's interpretation of historical fact and offer a few of their own historic puzzles. This program also takes viewers on a tour of some of the main locations described in the book, such as the Louvre Museum, Saint Sulpice Church, Temple Church, Westminster Abbey, and the controversial site of the Rosslyn Chapel. In addition, many of the works of art used in THE DA VINCI CODE are re-interpreted using visual aids to uncover their true meanings.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33
