The documentary follows Melvin and Jean McNair from revolt and exile to renewal and reconciliation. As a young couple in 1972, the McNairs made news when they hijacked a plane from Detroit to Algeria to join the international section of the Black Panthers. Simultaneously an act of political resistance to racism and the Vietnam War and an act of desperation committed by two young people who saw no other way to escape the constant state of racial oppression in the US, the controversial act continues to have long-term repercussions decades later. After serving several years in prison in France for the hijacking, the McNairs remained in France and, for 35 years, have lived as model citizens in their adopted country. Forty years after the fact, the two are still coming to terms with their crime and its lifelong consequences as they try to gain the freedom to return home without spending the rest of their lives behind bars in America. 001355188 546__ $$aIn English. 001355188 650_0 $$aBlacks$$zUnited States$$zNorth Carolina. 001355188 650_0 $$aRacism$$zUnited States$$zNorth Carolina. 001355188 650_0 $$aDiscrimination$$zUnited States. 001355188 655_7 $$aDocumentary films.$$2lcgft 001355188 7001_ $$aWechsler, Maia.$$4drt$$4pro 001355188 7001_ $$aBelghiti, Matthieu.$$4pro 001355188 7760_ $$cOriginal$$w(OCoLC)884725741 001355188 85640 $$uhttp://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?FLON;2330343 001355188 901__ $$aASP2330343/flon$$bVaAlASP$$c11031$$tbiblio 001355188 905__ $$uadmin 001355188 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1355188$$pGLOBAL_SET 001355188 910__ $$aJB 2014-12-04 001355188 944__ $$a2330343 001355188 945__ $$aThe Whole World 001355188 950__ $$aBLST$$aFLON$$aDVDF$$aVSTR$$aVASS$$bBLSV$$bFLN3$$cBLSV-V1$$cVSTR-ST$$cDVDF-ST$$cFLON-14$$cEBAP-BF$$cPDAP-BF 001355188 980__ $$aSTREAMING 001355188 980__ $$aBIB 001355188 982__ $$aStreaming Video 001355188 983__ $$aOnline
