From Stanley Nelson’s THE BLACK PANTHERS to Ken Burns’s JACKIE ROBINSON to Henry Louis Gates’ BLACK AMERICA SINCE MLK and more, Programs Reach Into PBS’ Fall 2016 Season.
PBS is highlighting the African-American experience through content on air on PBS member stations, online through the PBS Black Culture Connection and through a series of community conversations that will engage viewers in an exploration of African-American history and culture.
In addition to documentaries airing in February featuring those who helped influence integration and inclusion, throughout 2016 PBS will also feature programs about moments in history that helped shape race relations today. Please click here for more information from PBS.
