      They’re still around. You have to look for them. Every generation has its hill to climb. This one and possibly, the last two have gotten lost along the way. They fell off and have just begun to climb back on. When they return to their roots they’ll stop trying to conform to the system of the world. You’ll see the results in what they produce and create. Keep the faith! Things weren’t all heavenly back then either. They had their share of ‘no counts’ and backsliders. Black people then had to endure so much for mere survival. The survivors had an appreciation and more of an attitude of gratitude. But everybody didn’t make it just like now.

    Is that a young Mama Jefferson at the beginning of the film? I always catch things like that.

    Souls of Sin was not produced by Spencer Williams. As one of his relatives I can say this film is not his work. Why not show GO Down Death or the Blood of Jesus or Brother Martin, Servant of GOD. This makes this SMU video site questionable at best for the info you are providing is not accurate!!!!!!

    These Are Fims That Are From The Tyler Texas Black Film Collection And I also have Many of Them That I Reprocessed For Better Viewing & Sound Quality. I Believe That These Are The Jewells Of Film Making From The Early Days 1920s-1950s And Anyone who Has Not Seen Them Becuse Of The Bafoonery That Is seen? Just remember That These Are Actors working Using There Craft. From Bogangles (bill Robinson) To Stephen Fetches ... Its All About Working In The Business Of Entertainment Film Making & Acting. Look At All of The Actoresses & Actors Today In 2016 Who Would Have Just Loved To have A Job Working For A Motion Picture Indrustry in USA . Anyone With Common Sence Can See That Black Film Making Is NOt New To The Industry. Especially After watching A Few Of These Great Master Peices. But Thats Just My Openion....

    1st of all I don't feel bad for angel face. She was grown enough to run after him. After bill warned her if you like him it's like sticking your hand in a bag of scattered needles she's confusing

      her intentions were sincere, she was just lacking in experience.

    is that him speaking in the opening? maybe she meant his personal collection. wasn´t there a barn full of films in the cans, found in texas awhile back that needed to be clean and restored. could he have bought those?

    Not controversial then but controversial now due to thin skin. I don't want the "cleaned up" version.
