All-American news were the first newsreels produced for a black audience. Made in the 1940s and 1950s, they were originally intended to encourage black Americans to participate in, and support the war effort, and to reflect an African-American perspective on world and national events. Highlights of this issue include a segment about Evelyn Boyd who wins a scholarship, Dr. J. Price McCain who raises prize collies, and Clifford Blount who lost his arms in an accident. https://www.loc.gov/item/2018601427/
