Overview

Teddy narrates a snapshot of his life in Watts, California in 1971. He describes his relationship to religion, education, and radical politics, as well as his family and social life, against a backdrop of his neighborhood. He talks candidly about the War in Vietnam, the devaluation of education for Black young people, and the recent raid on the Black Panther Party Headquarters, with a clear-eyed sense of injustice. Social Seminar Film produced by the University of California at Los Angeles Extension Media Center for the National Institute of Mental Health. Preserved by the A/V Geeks from the Prelinger Archives.
