Edited film by Dr. Clement Meighan examines rock paintings at a site in Baja California discoverd in 1975. Film gives a brief introduction to representative rock paintings--petroglyphs and pictographs--throughout the world (Africa, Europe and North America), comparing the style of the Baja paintings with those elsewhere. Paintings are shown in great detail (possibly in Gardner cave) as well as demonstrating a replication of the mixing of pigments used. Narration speculates on the significance of these paintings to the American Indians who painted them.

label: Summary

content: Walter Goetz was an amateur photographer who shot films on his many vacations. This collection contains film footage from 41 trips that he took between 1949 and 1986.

label: Biographical / Historical

content:
Walter George Goetz was born November 21, 1930, in Brooklyn, New York. He was the only child of Mary and Walter Goetz Sr., who lived in Glendale, Queens. Goetz worked for many years for AT&T. From an early age, he accumulated photographs and films of his travels, becoming an accomplished photographer. He loved to share his films at family gatherings, presenting the films with help from his copious notes, using artifacts brought home from his travels to enhance his talks.

Walter and his family moved to New Jersey and then to Florida, where they lived for 23 years. Hawaii became Walter's favorite place to visit, and he and his family often travelled there for 4 to 6 weeks at a time.

At his death, Goetz asked that his films be shared. He died March 13, 2018, in Spring Hill, Florida at the age of 86.

content:
Edited film shot sometime between 1946 and 1952 (prior to implementation of the Group Areas Act). Reverend Scott, a campaigner for human rights, secretly documented appalling and oppressive conditions for the majority African and colored (Indian) population of South Africa with the intent of generating international support for their plight. Opening panoptic shots of Johannesburg and "the civilization intended for whites only" are contrasted with shots of township areas and government housing. Visual documentation of the color bar and its social and economic impact includes overcrowding, lack of public services, and the proliferation of squatter habitations that accompanied mass urbanization in post-War South Africa. Film also includes: street life in Sophia Town, a tribal ceremony, a "beggar band" in Tobruk performing for pennies, the little-known intertribal bare-knuckle fights which were organized by the police "to keep Africans off the street" and for the entertainment of white spectators, and separate facilities for Europeans, Africans, and Indians. Final sequences document scenes from the British protectorates of Basutuland, Swaziland, and Bechuanaland within the Union of South Africa. Herero sites outside of Windhoek are shown with women in dress which was introduced by German missionaries at the turn of the century. In Bechuanaland, Herero are filmed in an annual procession to pay tribute to ancestors who died fighting the Germans. As an advocate for the continued independence of these peoples, Reverend Scott presented a petition to the United Nations from the Herero of Bechuanaland stating their opposition to incorporation within South Africa. Herero are shown gathering to hear news of the United Nations response to their petition.

Edited film made by Martin Moyer for educational use is a brief history of the people of Fiji, with emphasis on the people of Indian descent. The free train provides transportation that connects people from access to markets to visiting friends. Shown are Indian farmers who live by the railroad and work for the Colonial Sugar Company; people working in the lowland rice paddies that skirt the rail line (harvesting, thrashing and winnowing); villagers viewed from the passing train; the wholesale rice dealers and the retail merchants in markets along the rail line; and the train crew and its passengers. Collaborator is R.A. Derrick, Geographer-Historian and Director of Fiji Museum.
