The Injustice Files: Sundown Towns
Film-maker Keith Beauchamp investigates the phenomenon of Sundown Towns - all-white communities where African-Americans were not allowed to live, or - in some cases - be present after dark. Since the 1968 Fair Housing Act it has been illegal for such towns to exist, but Beauchamp sets out to discover whether the provisions of the act are being flouted
The Injustice Files: Sundown Towns airs on Quest Red at 9:00 PM, Sunday 4 May. (New.)
