On the subject of buying videotapes versus taping them from tv, I have

a question: A colleague of mine (who teaches our film course and is

very much into the video scene in general) claims that it's perfectly

legal to tape anything you want to from tv and show it to your classes.

I've argued that that doesn't make sense, at least with videos that are

sold -- e.g., "American Tongues." If it's legal to tape from tv, why

would people buy the tapes?



I originally taped the show from tv, but had a few problems. First, it was

on cable, but not on PBS, so I had to deal with commercials. Since I can

barely turn a vcr on and off, I botched up my copy trying to delete the

commercials. Also, the quality of the picture was uneven. After using it a

couple of times, I decided to ask the library to buy a copy. I'll have to ask

about the guide, however, since they have never given it out with the tape.

The tape was of execellent quality in both picture and sound.

Another question about "American Tongues": Are there two slightly different

versions of it? I'm almost positive I've seen slightly different versions.



I'm just about sure that there were differences in the tv version I taped and

the version that our library ordered.



Btw, I agree with the people who have given "American Tongues" glowing

reports. I consider it the best educational videotape I've ever seen --

accurate, enlightening, and fun.

Finally, I believe that the teacher who spoke about teaching Black students

Standard English was Nona Stokes
