Winner of the 1965 Academy Award for Best Documentary Short, the documentary is among the agency's most well-known, exemplary, and important films. Yet it is part of a larger story concerning USIA. While the agency's institutional motivations were certainly complicated amidst (rightful) global criticisms of embedded prejudices in the United States, many USIA films feature stories of American civil rights movements and historically marginalized communities.
