"Rough Cut Discussion Group" led by Bill Parsons. A rough cut clip of Muhammad Ali's refusal to fight in Vietnam from episode "Ain't Gonna Shuffle No More" from Eyes on the Prize II is shown with participants discussing it afterwards. Another clip (that is not included in this recording) was a similar rough cut of the affirmative action that was included in "The Keys to the Kingdom" episode from Eyes on the Prize II, with discussion following.
This recording is part of Eyes on the Prize II: A Conference for Educators, held on November 17, 1989 at Tufts University. This day long conference was co-sponsored by the Civil Rights Project, Inc., the Museum of Afro-American History and Tufts University. As laid out in the registration brochure for the conference, the goal was "to encourage and strengthen teaching about the Civil Rights Movement and, in particular, to facilitate the effective use of 'Eyes on the Prize."
The original 3/4" Umatic videocassettes were digitized as part of a grant funded by the National Endowment for the Humanitities (NEH) focusing on material related to Eyes on the Prize II.
