Abstract: As part of an effort to desegregate the UCLA School of Theater, Film, and Television in the late 1960s, a group of African
and African-American students enrolled as part of an Ethno-Communications program. Here, these students gained access to the
equipment and instruction needed in order to tell their stories. For approximately two decades, these students created a new
type of cinema that would later be known as the L.A. Rebellion. These filmmakers represent an early effort to create a new
and alternative practice of Black Cinema in the United States. Processed materials consist of the papers of L.A. Rebellion
filmmakers Larry Clark and Julie Dash.

Biographical / Historical
As part of an effort to desegregate the UCLA School of Theater, Film, and Television in the late 1960s, a group of African
and African-American students enrolled as part of an Ethno-Communications program. Here, these students gained access to the
equipment and instruction needed in order to tell their stories. For approximately two decades, these students created a new
type of cinema that would later be known as the L.A. Rebellion. Some of these filmmakers include Charles Burnett, Larry Clark,
and Julie Dash. These filmmakers represent an early effort to create a new and alternative practice of Black Cinema in the
United States. These films have received substantial recognition on the international festival stage as well as in commercial
markets.
