The Fourth of July comes with a mix of emotions for many within the Afro-American community -- a mix consisting of pride, patriotism and an abiding dose of pain caused by a much deeper conflict over issues of identity, opportunity and full participation in America. This year, the mix of emotions is at the fore as thousands gather in Reno, Nevada to observe the centennial of a pugilistic encounter between the then reigning heavyweight champion Jack Johnson, and his opponent, Jack Jeffries, a man who had previously held boxing's most coveted title. |

"You will be touched by the power of
this documentary ... to see how the generosity of an
extraordinarily compassionate entrepreneur
transforms the life of a young woman growing
up in one of Chicago's toughest
neighborhoods. I highly recommend
INDIA OF K-TOWN, an independent video by
Chicago's own Emmy Award winning director
Beverly Price."
