    Abstract: "Just like spoken languages, sign languages have dialects. Black ASL is the unique dialect of American Sign Language (ASL) that developed within historically segregated African American Deaf communities. Largely unknown to outsiders, Black ASL has become a symbol of solidarity and a vital part of identity within the Black Deaf community. Different uses of space, hand use, ways it sets itself apart from other varieties of ASL. With the perspectives of Black signers, Sign Language interpreters, and the scholars who have worked to uncover it, Signing Black in America explores the history and development of this unique and expressive variety of visual communication."--Container

    Abstract: "Visit the Time Capsule, Playground of Science, the Junior Science Hall, the Hall of Power, the Hall of Electrical Living and the Battle of the Centuries. This drama, sponsored by Westinghouse, features a typical middle class family from the midwest and examines the ideas of consumption and capitalism. The film shows the contributions of free enterprise and technology and the benefits that they give to modern living. The drama comes in as the film contrasts the ideas and goodness of capitalism against the anti-progressive message of communism. Intertwined within the story is an excellent tour of the marvels on display in the Westinghouse building in the 1939 New York World's Fair." -- Container
