DESCRIPTION:A.N.S.W.E.R. Film Series: “JULY ‘64”\n\nThe night of Friday, July 24, 
 1964 started off normally enough in Rochester, New York, but by the next 
 morning no one would look at race relations in the North the same again. 
 July ‘64 takes a penetrating look at the underlying causes of the urban 
 insurrections that swept through Black communities like wildfires that 
 summer and in years since.\n\nTo many whites it must have seemed odd that 
 it started in Rochester. To them Rochester was the ideal small city; it had 
 low unemployment and thousands of high paying jobs in “clean companies” 
 like Kodak, Bausch and Lomb, and the future Xerox. Blacks emigrated from 
 the South looking for these jobs only to be bitterly disappointed to find 
 that the only positions open to them were as janitors and service personnel 
 not skilled technicians. They were confined to ghettos of rundown 
 rat-ridden, housing. Police brutality was a constant aggravation. 
 Rochester’s Black neighborhood was a keg of dynamite waiting for a match. 
  \n\nThe film interviews several participants—after 40 years none felt 
 regret at giving vent to their frustration about the situation in 
 Rochester. 2006, 54 min. $5 donation\n\n
