HAMMER: "A tool that can be used to tear down and/or build up!"
In the city of Houston, Texas, like elsewhere in America, African-Americans had to stand up to injustice, prejudice and racism in the early to mid 1900's. It is a problem that still exists in America today. In many neighborhoods and communities throughout the nation there were brave leaders who stood in defiance of injustice and worked tirelessly and courageously to produce equitable change. This documentary is about three such leaders in Houston Texas, and their more than 50 years of service to the African American and minority communities. I call them the "Three Hammers of Houston". Those three Hammers are Ovide Duncantell (The Freedom Fighter), Reverend Ray Martin (The Fighting Preacher), and Deloyd Parker, Jr. (Champion of African Cultural Activism).
