Within Our Gates, is one of the oldest films by an African-American director, portrays a harrowing account of the early twentieth-century racial situation in the United States, including Jim Crow rules, the Great Migration of Southern blacks to northern towns, and the emergence of the Ku Klux Klan. The movie, directed by Oscar Micheaux, is one of the first and greatest instances of the genre of race films (Bowser, Pearl, and Spence). Produced not as a part of the main Hollywood system, these kinds of films were intentionally developed for an all-black audience, mostly black performers were cast, and were key forums for contesting depictions of African-Americans in popular culture (Micheaux).
