This one-hour historical film explores Washington, D.C.'s long struggle for self government and voting rights through the experiences of its citizens. Since 1801, residents have faced disenfranchisement. Despite efforts - such as biracial democracy during the Civil War and activism by figures like Frederick Douglass and civil rights leaders - D.C.'s fight for representation continues.
