Synopsis by Betsy Boyd
Part of the documentary series Eyes on the Prize 2, which investigates the more recent journey of the civil rights movement and provides a follow-up to the acclaimed Eyes on the Prize series, Eyes on the Prize 2: The Time Has Come (1964-66) discusses emerging black voices of strident aggression. In the late '60s, black activists like Malcolm X and the SNCC (the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee), gain great steam and apply a fearless new philosophy. Across the country, these activists echo a relentless demand for equality, freedom, and power.
