I am sorry that I can't help you locate the tapes you want for your African-
Americans on TV course, but I am interested in the topic and would also like
to know if tapes of Julia and the Nat King Cole Show are available. As you
probably know, Amos 'n' Andy  and I Spy tapes are widely available (check
any mall) and The Beulah Show is available from Video Yesteryear, as are some
early Showtime at the Apollo shows. Unfortumnately, much of what I would most
like to use (Nat King Cole, for example) I am unable to find.
 
I teach a similar course (unfortunately, a brief one-week, one-credit summer
course) and would like to exchange other information with you. Do you have
a BITNET address?
