Redefining Black Film The company's first two-reeler was The Realization of a Negro's Ambition (1916). The film's black protagonist, James Burton, is a Tuskegee graduate who leaves his father's farm and his girlfriend. Burton's departure allows him to seek his fortune out West on the California oil fields. When he arrives in California, Burton is denied an oil drilling job because he is black. The denial of an opportunity to work for the oil company becomes his major conflict. Nevertheless, Burton surmounts this obstacle by saving the life of a wealthy, white oilman's daughter and is rewarded with a job from her father. Later, the owner discovers that Burton has a degree in civil engineering and makes Burton the head of an oil expedition. Through a series of discoveries, Burton realizes that the geological features of his father's farm resemble those of the California oil fields. He returns home, becomes wealthy through his discovery of oil, and weds his hometown sweetheart.	Lincoln's first two-reel feature film release was The Realization of a Negro's Ambition (1916).
