Sister Becky's Baby
I produced, with the Neuse Community Screenplayers, a short-subject dramatization of Chesnutt's "Sister Becky's Pickaninny." We experimented with the concept of making movies on the same basis as community theater produces plays. The movie, on VHS, was distributed to about 30 schools around the country. It's still available at sisterbecky.com
