  7. I enjoyed listening to #DavidFrum discuss the #AmericanRevolution with #KenBurns. Mr. Frum is of course well aware of the losers of the Revolution -- he has a house on Loyalist Parkway.

  8. #CPB helps fund both #PBS & #NPR, but most of its funding is distributed to more than 1,500 local #PublicRadio & #television stations around the country.

    The corporation also has deep ties to much of the nation’s most familiar programming, from NPR’s “#AllThingsConsidered” to, historically, “#SesameStreet,” “#MisterRogers Neighborhood” & the documentaries of #KenBurns.

  9. Die #Dokumentation über #Countrymusic auf #arte ist großartig. So viele Namen, von denen ich noch nie gehört habe, so viele Geschichten über einfache Menschen in harten Zeiten.
    Und man lernt dazu. Folgender Witz etwa: "Warum haben Baptisten nie Sex im Stehen? Weil die Leute denken könnten, sie tanzen."
    [Tanzen gilt als verboten bei den #Baptisten.]

  10. As much as we'd like for Ken Burns to do a documentary on JFK, LBJ is the more interesting choice. 📺

    Ken Burns didn’t mean to be your history education: A Dallas visit with the doc master

    "We’ve accepted the violence of the Civil War, the violence of World War I and II and Vietnam and Korea. But we’ve protected our Revolution like a bug in amber."

  11. @Lassielmr The crazy thing about #Hitler is that he got the idea about #Eugenics and purification of the races from the Americans and their treatment of Black people, especially with the lynchings and for sterilizations in the early 1900’s.

    Checkout #KenBurns #Holocaust documentary and the #1619Project for for more details.

  12. The #AmericanBuffalo
    A New Documentary from #KenBurns Now Streaming

    "The American #Buffalo, a new two-part, four-hour series, takes viewers on a journey through more than 10,000 years of North American history and across some of the continent’s most iconic landscapes, tracing the animal’s evolution, its significance to the #IndigenousPeople and landscape of the #GreatPlains, its near extinction, and the efforts to bring the magnificent mammals back from the brink.

    "For thousands of generations, buffalo (species #bison bison) have evolved alongside #IndigenousPeople who relied on them for food and shelter, and, in exchange for killing them, revered the animal. The stories of Native people anchor the series, including the #Kiowa, #Comanche, and #Cheyenne of the Southern Plains; the #Lakota, #Salish, #Kootenai, #Mandan-#Hidatsa, and #Blackfeet from the Northern Plains; and others."

  13. Did you see that recent Clarence Thomas slash Koch Brother photo making the rounds?

    Did you, like me, ask yourself "Who's that scrawny little guy in the middle? Is that Ken freakin' Burns?"

    I did a quick search and found this pretty hilarious set of results.

    ...#Jan6, except that it involved "only" a couple of #Congressmen and not the #POTUS

    Even though they had mentioned it in the #PBS series, #USAndTheHolocaust by #KenBurns, the full extent of the intent to overthrow the #US government did not become clear to me until after having listened to the pod.

  15. I've been sharing some of my #photography lately. These are from a 2004 event celebrating #FayVincent for his contributions to the #NECBL. Among those who attended were Hall of Famer #BuckONeil and filmmaker #KenBurns. #HallOfFame #baseball #MLB #Commissioner @[email protected] #CanonCamera @[email protected]
