I've seen "Strange Fruit" a few years ago. It was in reserve at my college library; we had to watch it for our Jazz and Rock History class. I'm sure a lot of these videos are still preserved in several libraries, so they're at least somewhere.
I understand your Fair Use argument here, but do you think you need to make it seem like the fight that African-Americans had for equality to similar to the struggle people have overcoming copyright laws (ie: coughing up the cash?) I think not.
it is great... your saying that soon things that should be perserved wil be gone and not seen again..... what I would like to know is some of the vidios that you showed is there anyway to get a copy of them at all or are they just lost forever... I mean I know I cant order it or anything but I want to know if anyone else has it and would like to share... I would share it too.. it should be available this is very very sad
That was good but "fair use" is not a "right." Its a conditional defense for people being sued for copyright infringement. While this may not seem like a huge mistake, it really is something that the creator of the video must address and correct. Calling that a "right" implies to the viewer that this is something that is actively enforced in law; which is not. As someone trying to make a informative video you should try to get your facts straight.
