  Slavery By Another Name This documentary challenges one of America's most cherished assumptions: the belief that slavery in this country ended with Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation of 1863. It tells a harrowing story of how in the South, even as chattel slavery came to an end, new forms of involuntary servitude, including convict leasing, debt slavery and peonage, took its place with shocking force - brutalizing and ultimately circumscribing the lives of hundreds of thousands of African Americans well into the 20th century. It was a system in which men, often guilty of no crime at all, were arrested, compelled to work without pay, repeatedly bought and sold and coerced to do the bidding of masters.
  The program spans eight decades, from 1865 to 1945, revealing the interlocking forces in both the South and the North that enabled this "neoslavery" to begin and persist. Using archival photographs and dramatic re-enactments, filmed on location in Alabama and Georgia, it tells the forgotten stories of both victims and perpetrators of neoslavery and includes interviews with their descendants living today. The program also features interviews with Douglas Blackmon, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning book "Slavery by Another Name" and with leading scholars of this period. duration 1:26:46   SRND51 TVPG-VL

  Not In Our Town: Class Actions Across the country, school campuses are incubators for innovation and social action. Historically, they are the places where young people first start to question old truths; where social change begins, and new ideas take root. Educational communities are social hubs where students from diverse backgrounds come together to shape themselves, their communities and the world. But campuses, and the people that call them home, can also be targets. They can find themselves vulnerable to people who fear change and who respond to diverse views with violence. duration 26:46   STEREO TVPG
