Add to Calendar08/11/2020 08:00:00 pm08/11/2020 09:00:00 pmAmerica/DenverIdahoPTV Screening with Q&A In August, America celebrates 100 years of voting rights for women with the anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment. By 1920 women in Idaho had already been voting in—and winning—elections for 24 years. The documentary explores how Idaho became the fourth state to grant women voting rights. Most of the history about women’s voting rights focuses on the East Coast. However, Western states were leading the way. Wyoming granted women the right to vote in 1870, followed by Colorado in 1893, then Utah and Idaho, both in 1896. Utah and Washington states granted women the right to vote earlier, then revoked the privilege. After Idaho, it took another 14 years for a state to grant suffrage to women. Join Idaho Public Television and Idaho Women in Leadership for an online preview screening of the new Idaho Experience documentary "Ahead of Her Time: Women’s Suffrage in Idaho”. The half-hour screening will be immediately followed by a live Q and A with Emmy Award-winning documentarian Jennie Sue Weltner; Idaho Senator Cherie Buckner-Webb; Rebecca Scofield, Ph.D., assistant professor of twentieth-century American history at the University of Idaho; and NNU student leader Mariela Esquivel-Rodriguez. The discussion will be moderated by IdahoPTV producer Marcia Franklin, who did research and conducted interviews for the documentary. The documentary is a partnership between Idaho Public Television, Idaho Women in Leadership, and the Idaho State Historical Society as a legacy project for Idaho Women 100. Major funding for Idaho Experience is provided by the J.A. and Kathryn Albertson Family Foundation. Additional funding is provided by Anne Voillequé and Louise Nelson, Judy and Steve Meyer, the Futura Corporation, the Richard K. and Shirley S. Hemingway Foundation, the Friends of Idaho Public Television, the Idaho Public Television Endowment and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. “Ahead of Her Time: Women’s Suffrage in Idaho” was independently produced by Jennie Sue Weltner with funding provided by Idaho Women in Leadership, the Pottenger Family Foundation, Zions Bank, Idaho Power, and Midas Gold. https://ovee.itvs.org/screenings/laiqlIdahoPTVevents@idahoptv.orgfalseMM/DD/YYYY

How do blacks in the Mid-West live today? Who is at the core of the 'Afro-American' resistance? What do African-Americans want? To answer these questions, our film crew traveled to the poorest neighborhoods of St. Louis, and New York, as well as Ferguson, Missouri. The series explores the significant problems of ghetto dwellers – lack of education, criminality, drug abuse, teenage pregnancies, lack of housing, and police brutality. However, the communities won’t put up with the way things are. The series tells the story of how African-Americans fight for their rights, strive for success, lifting themselves out of poverty no matter what. BLACK LIVES is a 2018 award-winning documentary short series produced by RT Documentary Channel.

After the screening, Mary Makley, 'By One Vote’s' producer, will lead a discussion with Carole Bucy, Ph.D., Davidson County Historian and professor of history, Volunteer State Community College; Beverly Bond, Ph.D., associate professor of history, University of Memphis; and historian/author Elaine Weiss (The Woman’s Hour: The Great Fight to Win the Vote); all of whom appear in the documentary. Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Rosanne Cash narrates 'By One Vote: Woman Suffrage in the South', a chronicle of events leading to the turbulent, nail-biting showdown that took place Aug. 18, 1920, in the Tennessee General Assembly. The U.S. woman’s suffrage movement began in the Northeast as an offshoot of the anti-slavery movement. 'By One Vote: Woman Suffrage in the South' tells the lesser-known history of the efforts by Southern women to gain the vote in the years following the Civil War through 1920. NPT’s documentary highlights major figures in Tennessee’s suffrage movement such as Anne Dallas Dudley and Sue Shelton White; as well as anti-suffragist Josephine Pearson and key legislator Harry T. Burn. Carrie Chapman Catt and Alice Paul are among the national activists referenced in the documentary. About our local partners: The Tennessee State Museum’s 'Ratified! Tennessee Women and the Right to Vote' is a new exhibition commemorating the centennial of the passage of the 19th Amendment, curated by the museum’s Miranda Fraley Rhodes, Ph.D. 'Ratified!' tells an inclusive story of suffrage activity throughout the state, in the decades leading up the vote and its ramifications in the years that followed. The show includes artifacts, documents, archival photos, large-scale graphics, videos and interactive elements. Footage from NPT’s 'By One Vote: Woman Suffrage in the South' is also included in the exhibition. 'Ratified!' spans two galleries and 8,000 square feet, and will remains on view into 2021. Nashville Public Library’s 'Votes for Women: Legacy of the 19th Amendment' tells the pivotal and dramatic story of Nashville’s role in winning women the right to vote with the passage of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The exhibit will be located at the Main Library and will provide a space to explore the core themes surrounding women’s roles, democracy, and power. 'Votes for Women’s' virtual opening is set for Aug. 18, 2020.https://ovee.itvs.org/screenings/jyxmhRosemaryrbrunton@wnpt.orgfalseMM/DD/YYYY

There is an imbalance because man has taken the path of greed rather than love. Something has to be done. The Keeper of Time is summoned to send out the final call to man. Will man listen? The 400 Year Exile hears the call and scans the African diaspora from Atlanta to Addis Abba, from Kingston to Brixton. Wars, famine, riots, celebrations, events that will shape the destiny of man. Featuring unique archive footage of Haile Selassie, Bob Marley, Kwame Nkrumah, Maurice Bishop, Minister Farrakhan, Kwame Toure, Bernie Grant. The soundtrack features music from Bob Marley, Steel Pulse, Asward.https://ovee.itvs.org/screenings/s07htKwami Abdul-Beyapjmm2019@gmail.comfalseMM/DD/YYYY

Lasse Sorensen from Food Is Love on Nine PBS joins us live on August 1 9. A preview of his new series, a cooking demo, and Q&A with Lasse begins at 7 pm. Born in Denmark, Lasse Sorensen grew up on the outskirts of Copenhagen. His father was the pastry chef, so he grew up in the kitchen. At 15, he started he started pastry school. After graduating, Lasse began an apprenticeship at the Michelin-star restaurant La Cocotte. While working at La Cocotte, he became a part of the culinary team that created the food for the famed Academy Award-winning movie, Babette’s Feast. In 1989, Lasse moved to the U.S. He held several prestigious positions in renowned kitchens across California before moving to Southern Illinois to pursue his lifelong dream of owning his own restaurant. Lasse acquired a former roadhouse in the countryside and began operating a five-star fine-dining restaurant, called Tom’s Place, with his wife Mary Jane. Lasse’s interest in cooking for film and television was renewed when he began collaborating with WSIU Carbondale for a series of cooking shows. Fast forward to 2018, Lasse was invited to be a guest cook on the popular daytime television show, The Talk. The trip to Los Angeles and the time on set ignited a long-held idea of bringing a cooking show to life. Recalling his experiences with family and food, and the way that food can connect people, Lasse turned his personal mantra about food into the title of his new series on Nine PBS, Food Is Love, which premiered in July 2020. https://ovee.itvs.org/screenings/gnkr9Caroline Campanaccampana@ketc.orgfalseMM/DD/YYYY

On August 26, 1920, the 19th Amendment became part of the U.S. Constitution, and the right to vote in the U.S. could no longer be denied on the basis of sex. The fight for women’s suffrage was successful, but it was complex and interwoven with issues of civil and political rights for all Americans. Women's Rights National Historical Park, along with many other sites in the National Park Service, strives to share the complicated legacies of the women's suffrage movement "for the enjoyment, education, and inspiration of this and future generations." This program explores suffrage history through the legacies of Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington, and Maggie Walker. Coline Jenkins, Kenneth B. Morris, Jr., and Liza Mickens represent four significant figures in civil rights history and work to carry on and build upon the activist history in their family trees. The program will be followed by a live Q&A on Zoom about the history, significance, and legacy of the fight for women's suffrage. This program is funded by a grant from the National Park Foundation. https://ovee.itvs.org/screenings/gjwg2WCNYovee@wcny.orgfalseMM/DD/YYYY

Following Brown v. Board of Education, a federal judge ordered Clinton High School to desegregate with “all deliberate speed” in the fall of 1956. The Clinton 12, the first Black students to attend Clinton High School, registered and attended school for one day without incident in late August of 1956. However, on September 1, the White Citizens Council and Klan launched full-scale rioting in Clinton. Cars were overturned, windows smashed, and Black citizens were threatened. On December 4, 1956, a white minister organized to support the Clinton 12. After escorting the students to school, he was severely beaten by a white mob. The principal closed the school until December 10, when a federal judge reaffirmed his court injunction forbidding anyone from interfering with the integration process. In 1958, the school was destroyed by dynamite.https://ovee.itvs.org/screenings/qponzKwami Abdul-Beyapjmm2019@gmail.comfalseMM/DD/YYYY

As kids explore Animal Town, they will meet all kinds of interesting, funny, and quirky characters, each with something to teach us about respecting others, the importance of diversity, caring for the environment, and working together to solve problems. In each episode, Elinor models the foundational practices of science inquiry and engineering design -- including her amazing powers of observation and willingness to ask questions and investigate. When she encounters something she doesn’t understand, like why birds have feathers or how tiny ants build massive anthills, she just can’t let it go until she figures it out. And in discovering the answers, Elinor often learns something about nature’s ingenious inventions and how they can connect to ideas in our designed world, and what it takes to live in a community.https://ovee.itvs.org/screenings/fts7aIdahoPTV Eventsevents@idahoptv.orgfalseMM/DD/YYYY

Viola Liuzzo was a 39-year-old Detroit teamster's wife and mother of five, who joined thousands of people converging in Selma, Alabama for the march on Montgomery, led by Martin Luther King in 1965. But shortly after the historic Voting Rights March had ended, she was shot in the head and killed by a car full of Klansmen, while driving on a deserted highway. Liuzzo's death came at a pivotal moment in the civil rights movement, when President Johnson had been fighting an uphill battle to push the Voting Rights Act through Congress. Her murder is attributed by historians of the era as providing the final piece of leverage that won Johnson approval of the Act in Congress, which forever changed our political landscape. Why do we not know the story of Viola Luizzo, while nearly everyone has heard of Goodman, Schwerner and Cheney -- the three rights workers killed the year before in Mississippi? The reasons are complex, and won't be found in history books. Immediately following her murder, Liuzzo became the target of a smear campaign, mounted by J. Edgar Hoover and the FBI, as a means of diverting attention from the fact that a key FBI informant was in the car with Liuzzo's killers. This discrediting of her name -- mostly based on her gender and wholly unfounded -- succeeded in erasing Viola Liuzzo from our cultural memory. After delving through thousands of pages of government documents and filming interviews with leaders in the fields of politics, history and forensics psychology, the filmmakers shed a new light on this complicated, buried story. Parallel to the Civil Rights struggle for which Viola lost her life is the present-day journey of her five children. Mary, the middle daughter, decides to retrace her mother's road trip from Detroit to Selma with the filmmakers. In the mid-60s she was an angry kid in the midst of a personal rebellion with her mother. The trauma of her sudden death caused her to bury any memories of her mother. Instead, she found herself reliving only the details of her gruesome death and its tumultuous aftermath. Now as an adult, she's ready to bring her back into consciousness. What she finds in Selma is both surprising and profoundly healing. Her brothers Tony and Tommy, who as boys felt the weight of it all on their shoulders, were eventually hit the hardest. Theirs is a path routed in turmoil, resulting largely from repeated failed attempts to vindicate their mother and seek justice their family. Their lives have been torn apart by what they see as a betrayal of their government, and after decades of fighting, they've each resigned themselves to their own form of refuge, which disconnects them from their sisters and the rest of the world. Home of the Brave links the personal and the political, the past and present and has a disturbing resonance to our world today.https://ovee.itvs.org/screenings/zzzqyKwami Abdul-Beyapjmm2019@gmail.comfalseMM/DD/YYYY

Banding together in one of the most segregated cities in postwar America to collectively confront issues such as police brutality and substandard housing, they called themselves the Rainbow Coalition. The First Rainbow Coalition tells the movement’s little-known story through rare archival footage and interviews with former coalition members in present-day. https://ovee.itvs.org/screenings/9z0vtKwami Abdul-Beyapjmm2019@gmail.comfalseMM/DD/YYYY

Our story unfolds as voters organizing to enact the reform face fierce pushback from establishment politicians. The film looks at the historical rise, fall, and rebirth of RCV in the United States and abroad, and embed viewers in the front line of the battle raging over voters’ rights. Through a ballot measure in November 2016, the citizens of Maine voted to become the first state in the nation to use Ranked Choice Voting statewide for federal and state elections. One year later, the legislature and governor moved to kill the bill, claiming it was unconstitutional. However, the people have final say through a process called the People’s Veto. Now they have 90 days to collect over sixty thousand signatures in the depth of the Maine winter. Will they succeed? Enlivened with colorful hand-drawn animation, The Battle for Ranked Choice Voting follows Maine’s story, drops in on cities like Memphis, Minneapolis, San Francisco, and Santa Fe that have adopted Ranked Choice Voting, and takes viewers on a whirlwind tour of non-plurality systems dominant throughout the world. Follow this citizen uprising to restore our failing democracy!https://ovee.itvs.org/screenings/1bk3jKwami Abdul-Beyapjmm2019@gmail.comfalseMM/DD/YYYY

Add to Calendar10/31/2020 06:00:00 pm10/31/2020 07:00:00 pmAmerica/ChicagoElectoral DysfunctionThere’s Something Funny About Voting in America For starters, where is the Electoral College—and does it have a winning football team? Why does America have 13,000 voting districts, each with its own set of rules? And why are residents of our nation’s capital denied full voting rights? Electoral Dysfunction, a feature-length documentary created by a team of award-winning filmmakers, uses humor and wit to take an irreverent—but nonpartisan—look at voting in America. Hosted by political humorist Mo Rocca — a correspondent for CBS Sunday Morning, a panelist on NPR’s hit quiz show Wait, Wait ... Don’t Tell Me!, and a former correspondent for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart — the film opens as Mo makes an eye-opening discovery: The U.S. Constitution does not guarantee the right to vote. Mo sets out to learn why the Founding Fathers deliberately omitted the right to vote from the Constitution—and to understand the consequences of this decision. His quest leads him to Indiana, which has some of the strictest voting laws in the country. He meets two impassioned local activists—Republican Dee Dee Benkie of Versailles and Democrat Mike Marshall of North Vernon—who take him inside their efforts to turn out every vote. Dee Dee, a member of the Republican National Committee who worked in Karl Rove’s office at the White House, has met her match in Mike, a veteran political consultant and former State Representative. Things heat up when the Republicans file a lawsuit challenging thousands of Democratic absentee ballots. As he progresses on his journey, Mo explores the heated debate over Voter ID and voter fraud; searches for the Electoral College; gets to know a former felon who mistakenly believed she was disenfranchised for life; critiques ballot design with Todd Oldham; and encounters a range of activists, experts, and election administrators, along with some highly opinionated third graders, who offer commentary on how voting works—or doesn’t work—in America. Woven throughout the film are sequences in which Mo meets reformers working to bring greater fairness and transparency to our election system. Among these reformers are proponents of the National Popular Vote Campaign, who have devised a plan to reform the Electoral College without a Constitutional amendment. Although this pragmatic measure—which would result in direct election of the President—has already passed in 31 state legislative chambers, it has received scant attention from the mainstream media. These stories carry the film into the future while giving viewers concrete steps they can take to help bring about change.https://ovee.itvs.org/screenings/vooadKwami Abdul-Beyapjmm2019@gmail.comfalseMM/DD/YYYY
