The rebel that became a legend. Vanessa Williams and Henry Lennix star in this African American period bio-pic "Keep the Faith, Baby" (2002), originally produced for Showtime. Driven by a passion for justice, Adam Clayton Powell (Lennix) was a Harlem preacher in the 1940s whose ability to unite and persuade led him to a two-decade career as a Congressman. Between shaking up deeply-rooted racism, charming ladies like pianist Hazel Scott (Williams), and bringing his enemies' blood to a boil, this gripping film offers a look at the virtues and shortcomings of a charismatic trailblazer.
