Interview of Nicholas deB. (Nicholas deBelleville) Katzenbach conducted for Eyes on the Prize. Discussion centers on the integration crisis at the University of Mississippi, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
The original interview elements, 16mm negative and 1/4" audio reel to reel, were preserved during 2010-2016 due to the generosity of a grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Thanks to a grant from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC), the preserved films were digitized to create 10-bit uncompressed HD files and the original 1/4" elements were digitized to create 24-bit 96kHz .wav files. The picture and audio were then reassembled at the Film & Media Archive.
