Banished: American Ethnic Cleansings
Companion website to a documentary that investigates U.S. communities where blacks where forcibly expelled during the 1860s to the 1920s, and where "even a century later, these towns remain almost entirely white." Read about some of these communities, some of the families who were affected, opinions about reparations and race relations, and other topics explored in the film. Includes a map, video clips, behind-the-scenes material, and related website links. From Independent Lens.
