The mission of American INSIGHT is to produce historical documentaries featuring Philadelphia's historic structures, images from museum archives, and commentary from regional scholars as they investigate important lessons from our past.

Description:
Our current documentary-in-progress, "Free Speech: A Sacred Challenge," traces the bloody path of sacrifice and self-empowerment as the concept of Free Speech makes its way from the invention of the printing press through centuries of Quaker belief to become the core value of the American Constitution.

History:
Created in 1983 to bring the Spoken Word to a wide range of audiences, the organization recently changed its name from the American Poetry Center to American INSIGHT, as it prepares to reach audiences through the latest advances in all-digital archival research, video production techniques, and Internet-based delivery systems.
