This print was originally thought to be missing the concluding quotations from Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, as well as the end credits. It was subsequently discovered that PFA item #3500-01-4545, which was believed to be the film's trailer, was actually the quotes and the beginning of the credits. This has been spliced on to reel 6 of the print, but the end credits are still not complete. Film may probably still be considered projectable. 948 PFA 3500-01-4544.
