Maybe Next Week Sometime by David Boatwright

To celebrate the World Day for Audiovisual Heritage, Moving Image Research Collections (MIRC) at the University of South Carolina presents Maybe Next Week Sometime by David Boatwright, a documentary film from 1975. This film traces the roots of music created among African American communities in South Carolina in the 1970s. It examines black roots music as it existed in the rural South of the United States, and includes music ranging from folk and rock to spirituals and the ceremonial music of the Yoruba people of South Carolina. Produced by the South Carolina Arts Commission, a public arts organisation that toured artist-made films in the Southeastern United States, in order to make them more visible to the local population, this documentary has survived in what seems to be a unique copy with some color fading, conserved by MIRC. We are happy to present this film to the largest audience possible, and join UNESCO and the Coordinating Council of Audiovisual Archives Associations (CCAAA) in celebrating documentary heritage as promoting just, inclusive, and peaceful societies.
Featuring, in order of appearance: Juanita Green; Rock Cloud; Swamp Man; Michael and Ken Warren; Drink Small; Curt Riley; Inmates of the South Carolina Central Correctional Institute; Albert Smith; Yoruba People of Sheldon SC; Big Betty and the Spiritualities.
