Below are four documentaries about Mary McLeod Bethune:
- Mary McLeod Bethune (6 minutes): South Carolina Hall of Fame video gives an overview of Bethune’s life.
- Mary McLeod Bethune (4 minutes): Student documentary focuses exclusively on the founding of Bethune’s school in Dayton Beach, Florida.
- Mary McLeod Bethune and Eleanor Roosevelt with Dorothy Height (5 minute): Interview with Dorothy Height, a woman who actually worked with Bethune.
- Mary McLeod Bethune (26 minutes): This is by far the most in depth documentary on Bethune. I can’t remember the video that was shown at the Historic Site, but this may be it. It is divided into three parts, so when Part 1 ends, click the thumbnail for Part 2 on the thumbnail collage, and repeat for Part 3.
