In the controversial, original and provocative documentary Disappearing Voices: The Decline of Black Radio, director U-Savior Washington takes an unprecedented look at the rise and fall of an art form unique to America — Black radio.
The film is written and narrated by radio personality and historian Bob Law (Night Talk) and offers viewers a well- rounded discourse that looks at the impact of Black jocks not only on radio but on the very fabric of American life.
Replete with rare interviews with prominent figures in American society like Melvin Van Peebles, Rev. Al Sharpton, Gary Byrd, Chuck D of Public Enemy, Buddy Scott, Kae Thompson, Bobby Jay, Vy Higgensen, Stanford "The CutMan" Moore and Abiodun Oyewole of The Last Poets and with air checks by famous jocks like Frankie "The Love Man" Crocker, Enoch "The Dixie Drifter" Gregory, Jocko Henderson, Hal Jackson and Eddie O'Jay, Disappearing Voices does more than examine the factors that contributed to Black radio's demise. It is an exposé, a history lesson, a memoir and a source for solutions. For more information visit www.blackwaxx.com.
