A brilliant and stirring documentary, Integration Report takes a snapshot overview of the Civil Rights Movement in 1960. This film contains footage and vocals from some of the most important leaders including Martin Luther King Jr., Bayard Rustin, Jackie Robinson, and others. Maya Angelou provides a vocal as well. Marches, sit-ins, boycotts, rallies, the first marches in Montgomery, the reactions against police brutality in Brooklyn, are all preciously captured. In particular, protests of the disadvantages that African Americans faced in United States courts is tragically examined. The large role that young people played in the Civil Rights Movement is highlighted. A beautiful, understated film, Integration Report is a fascinating account of the heroic struggle made by civil rights leaders and activists.
