Black Indians: An American Story. Prod. by Steven R. Heape. Rich-Heape Films, 2001. 60 mins. (Rich-Heape Films, Inc., 5952 Royal Lane, Suite 254-4, Dallas, TX 75230; 1-888-600-2922; <sales@richheape.com>; <http://www.richheape.com> [Sept. 23, 2002])

In Black Indians, the executive producer, Steven Heape, and the director, Chip Richie, of Native American–owned Rich-Heape Films have produced an important documentary study of a little-known aspect of American race relations. Utilizing interviews, historical photographs and footage, lithographs and other artwork, location shots, and evocative music by the Neville Brothers, the film is expertly narrated by James Earl Jones, himself of black-Cherokee extraction. Most compelling are the interviews with contemporary biracial Black Indians, who speak eloquently of their real-life struggles with prejudice and of the pride they feel in their mixed heritage. The winner of several film festival and industry awards, Black Indians has been screened at prestigious American museums and is scheduled to be shown on public television in early 2003. . . .
