Wilmington, North Carolina once had a thriving Black middle class and an elected interracial government. In 1898 white supremacists used violence to overthrow that government, kill Black residents and drive many others from the city.

Spectrum Animation was an animation studio in Japan, made up of former TMS Entertainment employees. Spectrum animated several episodes of Batman: The Animated Series.
On the commentary track for "Heart of Ice" on the Batman: The Animated Series, Volume One DVD, producer Bruce Timm stated that Spectrum was responsible for airbrushing Mr. Freeze's helmet in every frame that featured him. Such attention to detail ultimately drove the studio to bankruptcy; most of their staff members are now working for Production I.G.
Frank Paur (director, "Vendetta", Batman: The Animated Series) praised Spectrum's animation. "We wanted to keep the show heavy on the mist, the rain. I wanted reflections, mist, gentle rain to play up the whole motif. I was really worried at first that it would go to a bad studio."[1]
Moreover, Spectrum was credited for providing overseas animation work for a few DIC Entertainment productions such as Captain N: The Game Master (2nd season), Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventures, and Madeline.
The episodes of Batman: The Animated Series that were animated by Spectrum Animation Studio are:
Emmy Award – Robin's Reckoning, Part 1
1993 Outstanding Animated Program (For Programming Less Than One Hour)
Spectrum Animation provided layout services for the following episodes of Batman: The Animated Series. However, Dong Yang did the animation for these episodes.
Spectrum and Dong Yang Animation both worked on the animation for the feature film Batman: Mask of the Phantasm. Dong Yang did the animation for Mask of the Phantasm, and Spectrum did the layout services.

Mook Animation Inc. (株式会社ムークアニメーション, Kabushiki-gaisha Mūku Animēshon) is an animation studio based in Japan and started in 1986. Mook Animation formed a business alliance with DLE in 2006 and was known as Mook DLE; however they ended their partnership in 2008. Mook has provided animation services for Western television programs and feature films, mostly for Hanna-Barbera and later Cartoon Network, such as SWAT Kats (four episodes from the first season and the entire second season), The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest (the second season). They also provided the animation for Æon Flux, Biker Mice from Mars, Men in Black: The Series, Todd McFarlane's Spawn, X-Men: Evolution, and Transformers: Animated.
A spectrum analyzer measures the magnitude of an input signal versus frequency within the full frequency range of the instrument. The primary use is to measure the power of the spectrum of known and unknown signals. The input signal that most common spectrum analyzers measure is electrical; however, spectral compositions of other signals, such as acoustic pressure waves and optical light waves, can be considered through the use of an appropriate transducer. Spectrum analyzers for other types of signals also exist, such as optical spectrum analyzers which use direct optical techniques such as a monochromator to make measurements. By analyzing the spectra of electrical signals, dominant frequency, power, distortion, harmonics, bandwidth, and other spectral components of a signal can be observed that are not easily detectable in time domain waveforms. These parameters are useful in the characterization of electronic devices, such as wireless transmitters. The display of a spectrum analyzer has the amplitude on the vertical axis and frequency displayed on the horizontal axis. To the casual observer, a spectrum analyzer looks like an oscilloscope, which plots amplitude on the vertical axis but time on the horizontal axis. In fact, some lab instruments can function either as an oscilloscope or a spectrum analyzer.
Kyoto Animation Co., Ltd. (Japanese: 株式会社京都アニメーション, Hepburn: Kabushiki-gaisha Kyōto Animēshon), often abbreviated KyoAni (京アニ, Kyōani), is a Japanese animation studio and light novel publisher located in Uji, Kyoto Prefecture. It was founded in 1981 by husband and wife Hideaki Hatta, who remained as president until his death in 2026, and Yoko Hatta, who remains as vice president, along with a number of Mushi Production staff members; although the present enterprise dates to July 12, 1985. Kyoto Animation has produced anime films and series including The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (2006), Clannad (2007), K-On! (2009), Nichijou (2011), Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions (2012), Free!

Before the 1921 destruction of Tulsa’s Greenwood District, Black residents had created a remarkable center of business and community life. The district included stores, professional offices, entertainment venues and homes owned by Black citizens. Understanding Greenwood means learning what was built—not only what was burned.
