Through A Lens Darkly -- the real American family photo record.

The documentary "Through A Lens Darkly" -- willfully unseen -- unpacks the war of images within the American family album. It re-establishes that black people's representations of themselves ARE American history. It re-establishes that black people have the final word -- and image -- about who they are. American.

This film has been around awhile but PBS and theaters should give it far more exposure right now, as the current media portrayal war on a whole people continues. A powerful and important film that should be required viewing for all Americans. Fight the power.
