The Forgotten Battle of Fort Pillow and the Birth of the KKK
directed by: Michele Serra, John Barrett, Stan Armstrong
In 1864, Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest attacked Fort Pillow with 1,500 troops. The Fort was defended by 550 Union troops, half of which were black. After gaining the advantage, Forrest demanded surrender. The unionists refused and the ensuing Confederate assault resulted in very heavy Union causalities, especially among blacks. The controversy whether it was a massacre continues to this day.

After gaining the advantage, Forrest demanded surrender. The unionists refused and the ensuing Confederate assault resulted in very heavy Union causalities, especially among blacks. The controversy whether it was a massacre continues to this day.
Directors Stan Armstrong and John Barret use Civil War re-enactments at Fort Pillow State Park, historical footage, and mix in contemporary interviews to this documentary which offers a balanced portrayal of this little known, yet important event in our nation’s history.
The Ku Klux Klan was formed in 1866 by a small group of ex-Confederate soldiers. The KKK was created to defend Southerners against "carpetbaggers" and "scalawags." Forrest was the first Grand Wizard of the KKK disbanding it three years later because of its increasingly violent actions against blacks.

Frank Capra's WWII: Why We Fight - American Propaganda Films of WWII
Why We Fight • American Propaganda Films Of WWII 8 CLASSIC FILMS In 1940 soldiers newly drafted into the military lacked enthusiasm for the war. Morale was at an all-time low, and the American war effort was at risk of falling to indifference. Fortunately, in 1942, Major Frank Capra answered the call. He created a series of documentary style, informative films with the aim of explaining to the troops why they were putting their lives on the line and for what principles they were fighting. These popular propaganda films were viewed in many arenas in order to bolster the war effort and raise public opinion. They were screened in war plants, factories, and hometown and foreign movie theaters. And most importantly, they helped shape the public’s awareness of the dangerous fascist movement that was threatening freedom and liberty the world over, giving everyone a boost of patriotism and the commitment to fight.

The French Revolution (History Channel)
starring: Edward Herrmann, George Ivascu, Rodica Lazar, Tomi Cristin, Phillip Levine
directed by: Doug Shultz
On July 14, 1789, a mob of angry Parisians stormed the Bastille and seized the King's military stores. A decade of idealism, war, murder, and carnage followed, bringing about the end of feudalism and the rise of equality and a new world order. The French Revolution is a definitive feature-length documentary that encapsulates this heady (and often headless) period in Western civilization. With dramatic reenactments, illustrations, and paintings from the era, plus revealing accounts from journals and expert commentary from historians, The French Revolution vividly unfurls in a maelstrom of violence, discontent, and fundamental change. King Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette, Maximilien Robespierre, and Napoleon Bonaparte lead a cast of thousands in this essential program from THE HISTORY CHANNEL®. Narrated by Edward Herrmann (The Aviator, Gilmore Girls), The French Revolution explores the legacy that--now more than ever--stands as both a warning and a guidepost to a new millennium

George Washington's First War: The Battles for Fort Duquesne
On July 9, 1755, two regiments of British regulars and a Colonial contingent under the overall command of General Edward Braddock of the Coldstream Guards have been annihilated deep in the Ohio Country by a French and Native American guerrilla force from Fort Duquesne. The forest runs red with blood, and the French & Indian War has begun. Now French-led raiding parties use terror to push British settlers out of Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Maryland. In this dark time Virginia turns to its most experienced young leader, George Washington, a survivor of the Braddock Expedition. For three years Washington leads a regiment of Virginia defenders against the French-allied Indians, whom he calls "the most skillful of enemies" in a war that rages through the Ohio Country and across Europe. GEORGE WASHINGTON'S FIRST WAR uses large-scale battle reenactments staged on historic battlefields to capture the flavor of the war that taught young Washington how to lead fighting men. Featuring top historians, including CRUCIBLE OF WAR author Fred Anderson, REDCOATS author Stephen Brumwell, and BRADDOCK AT THE MONONGAHELA author Paul Kopperman, the award-winning GEORGE WASHINGTON'S FIRST WAR has been recognized by Colonial Williamsburg, Mount Vernon, and the Smithsonian Institution.
