Summary Program #760 : "Title: A past revealed: excavating slave burial grounds. When it was discovered that there were extensive slave burial grounds in Manhattan in 1991, an extraordinary aspect of American history came to light. For 21st century New Yorkers, the extensive nature of their city's role in the slave trade came as a distinct shock. But the discovery of those graves will now give voices to the silent and assure the memory of those who were so brutally treated in life. Dr. Edna Greene Medford explains how the Burial Ground Project has uncovered their stories."--Track sheet.
Program #765 : "Title: Pathways to citizenship. For Professor Mary Coleman, the question of exits from poverty is one of the most crucial public policy issues for this country and many others. Public policies which hinder the ability of individuals to 'exit poverty' are nothing short of a 'public insult,' whether their motivation is indifference, ignorance or hostility. In this conversation she draws compelling connections between the poor in Eastern Europe, Southern Africa and Sunflower County Mississippi."--Track sheet.
Commentary #239 : "Title: Congressional debates need facts, not spin. A recent book on how Congress debates policy shows that Senators and House members often resort to distortion and half-truths to score debating points. Former Congressman Lee Hamilton says they must do better, that 'Congressional debates need facts, not spin.'"--Track sheet.
