"Documentary on the frustrating failures of a community action project in the heart of the ghetto in Newark, N.J. The Newark Community Action Project (NCAP) was originally organized by Students for a Democratic Society three summers before the racial conflicts of 1967. NCUP later became an independent group made up of people from the community and concerned former students. Action is undertaken on three issues--and each attempt fails. Filmed as these efforts were being made, this documentary delineates the vast problems of organizing the poor and overcoming subtle opposition and indifference."--EMC catalog
