Justine Shapiro heads to Thailand in search of the White-Handed Gibbon.

  Moyers & Company [#131H] Between Two Worlds: Life on the Border No writer understands the border culture between Mexico and the US more intimately than Luis Alberto Urrea, this week's guest on an encore broadcast. His own life is the stuff of great novels. Son of a Mexican father and Anglo mother, Urrea grew up first in Tijuana and then just across the border in San Diego. Over the years he has produced a series of acclaimed novels, including The Hummingbird's Daughter, The Devil's Highway, and his latest, Queen of America - each a rich and revealing account of the people of the borderlands that join and separate our two nations.
  Earlier this year, a number of books were removed from Tucson, Arizona classrooms when the Tucson school district eliminated a Mexican-American studies program on the accusation it was "divisive." The program included references to Urrea's work. Urrea talks with Bill about that episode as he unfolds the modern reality of life on the border. duration 52:46   STEREO TVG

  Herbert Hoover: Landslide This documentary explores the facts and fictions behind the presidency of Herbert Hoover including The Great Depression and its lasting impact on government.

Along with the depression, "Herbert Hoover: Landslide" provides detailed discussion of the 1927 Mississippi flood, the 1928 election campaign, monetary and agricultural policies throughout the Hoover presidency, the Bonus March and the 1932 presidential election. Interview subjects include several notable scholars such as David Kennedy, Amity Shlaes, Robert Reich, Tim Egan and Timothy Walch among others. duration 56:46   STEREO TVPG

  Home from the War: The Voices of Vietnam "Home from the War: The Voices of Vietnam" chronicles the history of the Vietnam Veteran. This film is not a history of the Vietnam War, but of the men and women who fought a brutal, unpopular war, fulfilling their duty to a country that treated them with disdain and indifference. Veterans speak candidly about Vietnam, coming home and their children who are currently serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. The film features segments on PTSD, The Wall, The Veterans Administration, Vietnam Veterans of America, nurses, Rolling Thunder, Gold Star Mothers, African-American, Hispanic, Hawaiian, Native-American, Asian American and Vietnam Veterans of every background, race, creed and social standing. duration 55:05   STEREO TV14-VD
