The film itself is out of copyright, but copyright is claimed in the songs and Youtube had taken down another version of the film containing the two song performances. I decided to to re-upload the film without the songs becuase the message of the film still comes through without them.

Thank you for posting this. I used it in my class as part of our discussion of FHA, issues of tolerance, white ethnic immigrants, etc. The film is also featured in book by well known historian Roediger, called Working Toward Whiteness.

Sinatra was a man,who did more than we will ever know-the program fails to mention that a black man developed the technique for transfusing blood! Sinatra wouldnt stay in any place that sammy davis jr couldnt stay!!!!!

This clip of film made during 1945 was to highlight the diversity of the country. The man who directed it, Albert Maltz, was later imprisoned as one of the Hollywood Ten, because he went to a "Communist" meeting. Sinatra was called in front of HUAC (the House UnAmerican Activities Committee) and lost his recording contract. His career was gone until From Here to Eternity. When the blowhards try to claim the mantle of patriotism, remember it is diversity that makes us strong and has kept us free

I was a projectionist in my youth and ran this movie short. It made a profound impression on me. In this movie, Sinatra sings "The House I live in." In this version the song was missing, Why? It's vital.
