Another good documentary I saw was a business centered one based on African entrepreneurs. It was called "Africa Open for Business". These African entrepreneurs were in pretty bad parts of Africa and their entrepreneurial spirit made them supply needs that benefited their society despite political turmoil or lack of resources. It's very inspiring.

Another good documentary called "The Century of Self" it's based on the role of the marketing industries influence in US American society and politics. @Moreno.Kitamura I think you'll like it especially since you're majoring in marketing.

"Black" people should definitely see this film since they are the biggest consumers and if they are gonna fall for marketing tricks then they should at least see how marketing came to be and how marketing works.

'The Pruitt-Igoe Myth' deserves a mention on here. its about the St. Louis housing projects that were developed in the 50's and later demolished in the 70's. it offers good insight on city living trends and the develpment of suburban neighborhoods.
 
I have seen some of these, and I will check out more.

Has anyone seen "Scandalize My Name"? It talked about how hard it was for Blacks in the TV & movie industry, but I wish they could have gone deeper.
 
First part of an 8 part series. I found this stuff interesting, look forward to learning more about Ancient Egypt from different sources.
