This companion site to a recent Frontline examines the growing class gap within the African-American community. The site features a powerful essay by Henry Louis Gates, Jr.. Also, there are audio and text files from the Du Bois Institute's 1997 forum, economic and social statistics, and interviews with prominent African-American activists and scholars. Additional resources include a movie of the Howard University 1968 Takeover, a discussion forum, and a collection of readings and links. A complete transcript of the show is forthcoming.
