We have been asked to be a part of a film festival and have been trying to locate this film.  I understand that a station used it as a gift for their campaign drive .  We want to borrow, or purchase a copy and have tried to reach the creator with no success.  If you can help us locate it, please. Saying It Loud: Radio Giving Voice to Black AmericaRadio personality and community activist Bob Law has written and produced an important new film. SAYING IT LOUD, Radio Giving Black America A Voice. In this, his first solo effort at film making, Bob has assembled colleagues from the entertainment industry and the political arena to help him tell the actual story of the growth and development of what has been known as the Rhythm & Blues world.

The film explains the very real significance of Black Radio from the emergence of commercial radio to the glory days of Black personality radio. SAYING IT LOUD shows how Black radio did indeed give voice to the ideas and aspirations of Black Americas from the early days of the civil rights movement, the Black Power movement,Jesse Jackson’s initial presidential campaign, right up to the Million Man March.

With this film, Bob Law takes us on a journey that reveals how Black radio effectively created a Black entertainment industry while at the same time launching the careers of almost every major Black vocalist.
