    Who are the Pan-Africanists? No one can say with authority who was the first person to express ideas synonymous with pan-Africanism‚ but resistance to foreign domination has been a constant element of African history on and off the continent.

    Peter Pan is no doubt one of the most appealing subjects for "deep" psychological analysis.

    A Compound Life Sugar Cane Alley was filmed during the summer of 1931 in Martinique a time after the abolishment of slavery.

Every aspect of daily life is in some way controlled. Sugar Cane Alley is an insightful film that shows how no matter your environment‚ if you want to succeed you can with a lot of hard work
