| Summary |
Program #477 : Title: Thomas and Sally Hemmings "The relationship between Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings has been a vexing issue for American society for two hundred years. For many, acceptance of the liaison would mark an inadmissible slight on the legacy of the most luminous founding father. Yet the circumstantial evidence mounted and, as 1998 drew to a close, science-- in the form of DNA findings-- lent credence to the speculation about a tie. Annette Gordon-Reed, whose legal and scholarly training supported her book "Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings: An American Controversy," argues for the probability of a bond between the two."--Track sheet. |

Program #478 : Title: Iran today "The Iranian revolution has completed two decades. In some ways it has changed; in other ways not. At this moment, an interesting contest seems underway. Will moderate political forces hold sway or will conservative clerics insist on the fundamentalist parity of their society. Key sectors of the population are the target and the prize of these rival forces. Youth are restive and women are somewhat frustrated. The middle class and its institutions are the ultimate arbiters of Iran's future. Journalist Elaine Sciolino explains what is at stake."--Track sheet. |
