Soul of a People: The WPA Writers' Project Uncovers Depression America | 
pickA Smithsonian Channel DVD. Also available as a book. An interesting look at how everyday people were put to work as writers for the WPA program. The true stories about life in America were, in part, so shocking that they were censored as "Un-American". Thus, the true picture of life for Native Americans & the black population were suppressed. Yet voices like Richard Wright, Ralph Ellison, & Zora Neale Hurston still shone through. #writersofLitsy
