Adam Clayton Powell

He's been called flamboyant, a playboy, and a paradox. Watch this Oscar-nominated documentary about Powell, the first African American congressman from the northeast.

New York Noir

Metro's original special takes a look at the ways African Americans have contributed to New York, including footage of interviews with former president Gerald Ford, jazz greats Cab Calloway and Count Basie, and actor James Whitmore.

I Remember Harlem

In this four-part documentary, filmmaker William Miles charts the history of one of New York's most tumultuous, culturally rich neighborhoods. From its beginnings as part of the New Amsterdam colony in the 1600s through its role in the civil rights battles of the sixties, see what Harlem has given to our culture...and see our photo gallery of historical images.
