Jazz Saxophone Phenom Grace Kelly on Piano JazzEighteen-year-old wunderkind Grace Kelly —a saxophonist, singer, songwriter, composer, and arranger who’s lighting up the jazz music world—is the guest on the Friday, May 27th edition of Marian McPartland’s Piano Jazz. Kelly has performed over 500 concerts worldwide as the leader of her own quintet. She has recorded or performed with many notable musicians including Dave Brubeck, Wynton Marsalis, the Boston Pops, and others. She has appeared in concert throughout the world and at such notable venues as Carnegie Hall, the Newport Jazz Festival, and the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival. Kelly has recorded six CDs, her latest being Mood Changes, the fifth release on her PAZZ label. The album mixes six standards with four Kelly originals and features her working quintet (Jason Palmer, trumpet; Doug Johnson, piano; John Lockwood, basses; Jordan Perlson or Terri Lyne Carrington, drums), with guest appearances by guitarist Adam Rogers and trombonist Hal Crook. Trumpeter Wynton Marsalis was so impressed with Kelly’s three-night stand as guest of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra that he invited her to join the ensemble at the Kennedy Center’s Eisenhower Theater in Washington, D.C. for a Martin Luther King, Jr. Day/Inauguration Eve concert. Harry Connick, Jr. heard Kelly in a master class on a December afternoon and brought her on stage to sit in with his band that night. The Boston Music Awards declared her the city’s Outstanding Jazz Act, and the 2009 DownBeat Critics Poll added to her growing list of accolades by naming her one of the “Alto Saxophone Rising Stars,” the youngest ever to be so named. Kelly’s 2005 two-CD set Times Too found her expanding her musical palette while interpreting such classics as “Isfahan” and “`Round Midnight” with the gravitas of a veteran. The title track of her 2006 disc, Every Road I Walked, garnered the first of her ASCAP Foundation awards and an invitation to perform with the Boston Pops. Her mother’s strong classical music background led Kelly to begin piano lessons at age six, and she began studying saxophone at age 10. She currently studies or has studied with George Garzone, Lee Konitz, Allan Chase and others. She also plays piano, soprano and tenor saxophone, flute, and some drums. Kelly is currently is a junior at Boston’s Berklee College of Music, which she began attending on full scholarship at age 16. Kelly has garnered accolades from artists she revered growing up, sitting in with the likes of the late Frank Morgan and Phil Woods. “I gave her my hat, that’s how good she sounded,” Woods said.“She’s the first alto player to get one.”

Simon & Garfunkel: Bridge Over Troubled Water Sunday, May 1, 8 p.m. In 1969, Simon and Garfunkel recorded what would be their fifth and final studio album as a duo. Widely considered to be their masterpiece, the duo reportedly spent more than 800 hours over a two-year span recording Bridge Over Troubled Water.

Released in January 1970, the album reached No. 1 on Billboard Music Charts pop albums list. It won a Grammy Award for Album of the Year, as well as for Best Engineered Recording, while its title track won the Grammy Award for Record of the Year and Song of the Year. It has since sold over 25 million copies worldwide. In this special you’ll hear about the creation of Bridge Over Troubled Water from Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel, co-producer and engineer Roy Halee, and music journalist Bud Scoppa. The prevailing vibe at the tail end of the sixties was anything but peaceful or loving. Not with the unending carnage of Vietnam, the Manson family metastasizing hippie idealism into unimaginable brutality, or the violence of Altamont, which, combined with the breakup of the Beatles, jeopardized that last vestige of sixties idealism—the notion of music as a sacred sanctuary. Less than a month into 1970, America got a song that offered much needed message of hope with eloquent simplicity and grace: “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” Opening the album, the song gradually ascended from whispery intimacy to breathtaking grandeur on the wings of Garfunkel’s finest vocal. That slow-build aural architecture was but one of the record’s myriad pleasures, not the least of which was the epic

survivor’s narrative, “The Boxer,” a top 10 hit in 1969 and another of Simon’s most memorable songs. While several songs, most notably “Cecilia,” had nothing more pressing on their minds than getting to the hook, their old-school exuberance conspired to restore our faded memories of a long-ago moment when anything seemed possible—just what the doctor ordered for a generation whose golden dream had withered into its worst nightmare. One could certainly make a case that, with “So Long, Frank Lloyd Wright,” Simon was bidding adieu to his friend and partner, a onetime architecture major, or to the union itself, as, over a dusky bossa nova groove, Garfunkel sighed, “All of the nights we’d harmonize till dawn/So long/So long.” Ironically, during the making of this landmark work, which was embraced as a covenant of renewal, the team of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel was itself in the process of coming apart. Their diverging ambitions certainly had something to do

Intelligence SquaredSunday, May 8, 8 p.m.

The Republican and Democratic parties are entrenched in calcified partisanship, where politics is played as a zero-sum game. The rise of the Tea Party, liberal backlash, and the exodus of moderate voices from Congress all point toward the public’s growing discontent. Has our two-party system failed us? On this installment of Intelligence Squared, panelists debate: “The two-party system is making America ungovernable.” For the motion: David Brooks, op-ed columnist for the New York Times, former contributing editor at Newsweek and the Atlantic Monthly, and commentator on The Newshour with Jim Lehrer. He is the author of Bobos In Paradise and On Paradise Drive: How We Live Now (And Always Have) in the Future Tense. Arianna Huffington, co-founder and editor-in-chief of The Huffington Post, a nationally syndicated columnist, and author of thirteen books. In 2006, she was named to the Time 100, Time magazine’s list of the world’s 100 most influential people.

Radiolab: FallingSunday, May 15, 8 p.m.

There are so many ways to fall—in love, asleep, and flat on your face. In an episode full of falling music, Radiolab plunges into a black hole, takes a trip over Niagara Falls in a barrel, and debunks some myths about falling cats. We begin with two stories about heart-stopping falls. David Eagleman gets to the bottom of what goes on in our brains during those life or death moments when time seems to slow way down, and Lulu Miller brings us the story of Sarita and Simon, who fell in—and then out—of love.

We follow with three stories that upend our pre-conceived notions about falling. David Quammen ponders the terminal velocity of a plummeting cat, teaches co-host Jad Abumrad a new word, and helps clear up some fallacies of feline physics. Brian Greene explains why he can’t answer the most basic question you can ask a physicist: “Why do we fall?” Garrett Soden and Joan Murray introduce us to the 20th century’s greatest “gravity hero,” who, despite being the first person to survive a trip over Niagara Falls in a barrel, ultimately landed in a poorhouse. We conclude with two stories of falling in everyday life, and one fantastical leap. Professor Frederick Coolidge argues that our tree-dwelling ancestors are to blame for a hiccup in our sleeping patterns. David Eagleman explains walking as the act of calibrating our steps to turn falls into forward motion, and astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson takes us on a one-way trip into a black hole.

Against the motion: Zev Chafets, contributor to the New York Times Magazine, founding editor of the Jerusalem Report and the author of twelve books. He spent 30 years living in Israel with their multi-party system as an active participant in the Egyptian-Israeli peace process. P. J. O’Rourke, political satirist, research fellow at the Cato Institute, and the author of thirteen books. Time and the Wall Street Journal called him “the funniest writer in America.” He has written for such diverse publications as the Weekly Standard, the Atlantic Monthly, and Rolling Stone. John Donvan, correspondent for ABC News Nightline, moderates.

with it. But as with the Beatles before them, what for so many years had been a natural and unforced shared experience for the principals had become a strained, self-conscious one. Like the decade that had borne them into prominence, Simon & Garfunkel had run out of time. For those of us who lived through those times, though, hearing their songs never fails to bring back certain moments in our own lives, and with startling vividness. They moved on, and so did the rest of us. Simon & Garfunkel: Bridge Over Troubled Water is hosted by Rita Houston.

Economic Club of Indiana: Gary BeckerSunday, May 22, 8 p.m.

Gary Becker, a pioneering economist and Nobel Prize winner, was born the son of Canadian and European immigrants in a small coal mining town in Pennsylvania. Neither of his parents had an education beyond the eighth grade. Becker began aggressively studying math at the age of 16 and earned a bachelor’s degree in economics from Princeton in just three years. He went on to study under Milton Friedman, who encouraged his use of economic theory to promote social change. He holds appointments at the University of Chicago in the Department of Economics and Sociology and the Graduate School of Business. Becker was one of the first economists to branch into what were traditionally considered topics belonging to sociology—including racial discrimination, crime, family organization, and drug addiction. His central premise is that rational economic choices, based on self-interest, govern most aspects of human behavior—not just the purchasing and investment decisions traditionally thought to influence economic behavior. In studies such as A Treatise on the Family, Becker analyzed the household as a sort of factory, producing goods and services such as meals, shelter, and child care. From 1985 to 2004 he served as a columnist for Business Week. He is a founding partner of The Greatest Good, a business and philanthropy consulting company. Always on the leading edge, Becker has been blogging since 2004. In addition to his Nobel Prize, Becker received the National Medal of Science in 2000 and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2007. His luncheon talk to the Economic Club of Indiana is titled, “The Slow Recovery and Long Run Challenges to the American Economy.”

The Water-Energy Crunch—A Powerful PuzzleSunday, May 29, 8 p.m.

The world runs on water. Without it, we’d have practically no energy. Without energy—for cars, planes, laptops, smartphones, heating, cooling, and lighting—life as we know it would cease. Plug your iPhone into the wall, and about half a liter of water must flow through kilometers of pipes, pumps, and the heat exchangers of a power plant. That’s a lot of money and machinery to get a six-watt-hour charge for a flashy little phone. In the United States alone, on just one average day, more than 500 billion liters of freshwater travel through the country’s power plants—more than twice what flows through the Nile. According to one estimate, a single Google search takes about half a milliliter of water. Just a few drops, really. But the 300 million searches we do a day take 150,000 liters. That’s a thousand bathtubs of water to power the data centers that handle the world’s idle curiosity. In this co-production from IEEE Spectrum magazine and the National Science Foundation, we look at the coming clash between water and energy, learning how engineers, communities, and countries are working on innovative solutions to balance our needs for water and energy. Lisa Raffensperger reports a team at Yale that has developed a creative new low-energy method of desalination that could produce fresh water at half the price of existing methods, and use just one-tenth as much electricity. Current desalination provides make drinkable water from the sea for millions of people a day, but methods are hugely energy intensive. In Ames, Iowa, engineers are studying how growing biofuel crops might change the weather. Much of the current federal requirement for more biofuel production will be met by dedicated energy crops like switchgrass. By 2022, an area equivalent to the state of Missouri will be planted with the stuff, from almost nothing now. Switchgrass will require more water than the plants currently on that land—but, what’s less well known is that it might also change precipitation patterns in other regions of the country.

California desperately needs two things right now: water and renewable energy. It’s looking to Imperial Valley for both. But unless the state makes the right decisions about how to get these resources, it could end up destroying the Imperial Valley. For researchers at Penn State University, it’s the ultimate trash to treasure story: Someday cleaning our sewage could also generate electricity. The technology behind such a vision is the microbial fuel cell, which harvests electrons from microbes as they feed on waste and shuttles them through a circuit, potentially powering hundreds of homes in the future off the effluent of one wastewater treatment plant. Electricity generation is a thirsty process, requiring even more water than does agriculture. At the same time, providing clean water requires energy. Balancing our demands for both energy and water is a delicate business. If we add sustainability and air quality to the mix, the predicament becomes even more complex. Researchers are creating tools to help decision makers find a way through this dilemma. Their work is already improving air quality in Austin, Texas, and now they’re analyzing water-saving technologies to determine which will deliver the optimal effect. On Australian farms, various efforts to save water are causing electricity costs to skyrocket. Griffith, New South Wales, population 25,000, doesn’t seem like the center of anything, but this small Australian farming town is now undergoing firsthand the water-energy nexus and the painful tradeoffs that come with it. Dependent on imported oil for both its energy and water, the island of Malta has little control over its economic lifeblood. It has hired IBM to help it gain control of its water and electricity grids. A smart grid will monitor both water and electricity to clarify the connections between the two. The Water-Energy Crunch: A Powerful Puzzle is part of the Engineers of the New Millennium series.

Artist of the MonthWFIU’s artist of the month for May is Elisabeth Wright, professor of harpsichord and fortepiano at Indiana Univesity’s Jacobs School of Music. At the age of five Wright spent hours sitting at the piano, studying the music of Brahms, Chopin, and above all, Bach. She discovered the harpsichord while studying at Sarah Lawrence College in New York, and after graduating she continued her studies in harpsichord with Gustav Leonhardt at the Sweelinck Conservatory in Amsterdam. Upon her return to the U.S. she began her career as a performer and teacher. At IU she teaches basso continuo improvisation and performance practices of music of the late Renaissance, Baroque, and early Classical periods, and has given many master classes at conservatories around the world. She has toured in the U.S., Latin America, Canada, Europe and Australia, and performed at major early music festivals including Mostly Mozart, Tanglewood, and Festival Cervantino. Ms. Wright currently performs with the early music ensemble Musica Ficta, a group specializing in Renaissance and Baroque music from Spain and Latin America. She is a member of Duo Geminiani with fellow IU professor and violinist Stanley Ritchie, Ye Olde Friends, and Les Sonatistes. Her recordings have appeared on labels such as Classic Masters, Focus, Centaur, Arts Music, Musical Heritage, Milan-Jade, and Pro Musica Antiqua. She has served on juries of international harpsichord competitions, and has written reviews for Early Keyboard Journal. Wright is a founding member of the Seattle Early Music Guild and Bloomington Early Music Associates. She served as a board member of Early Music America and a panelist for the National Endowment for the Arts. WFIU will feature music performed by Elisabeth Wright throughout the month of May.

Featured Classical RecordingsSelections from each week’s featured recording can be heard throughout WFIU’s local classical music programming. A weekly podcast of our featured classical recordings is available at wfiu.org under the Podcasts link.

May 1-7Vivaldi: Sacred Music (7CDs)

(Newton 8802045)Various ArtistsVittorio Negri, director

Much of Vivaldi’s sacred music was written for a state-funded foundlings’ home for girls where he was music director. His writing concentrated almost entirely on instrumental music, especially concertos, when the choirmaster Francesco Gasparini went on leave and failed to return. Vivaldi was asked to help out, and the results can be heard on these seven CDs. This set is a must-have for those who love Vivaldi’s music and wish to explore beyond the famous concertos.

May 8–14Beethoven: The 11 Overtures

(PentaTone Classics PTC 5186 148)Gewandhaus Orchestra, LeipzigKurt Masur, conductor

Beethoven’s eleven overtures were written almost side by side with his symphonies. The first, The Creatures of Prometheus, came along almost simultaneously with the Symphony No. 1. The last, The Consecration of the House, was written during the same period as the ninth and final symphony. These orchestras paved the way for the concert overture and subsequently the symphonic poem, and all are recorded here by Leipzig’s masterful Gewandhaus Orchestra under the direction of Kurt Masur.

May 15–21That Eternal Day

(Cantus Recordings CTS-1210)Cantus

The Minnesota-based men’s vocal ensemble Cantus is riding a wave of success. You may have caught them on one of their national tours or heard their

holiday special the last couple of years on WFIU. On “That Eternal Day,” they ensemble focuses on the tradition of American sacred song from William Billings to Bobby McFerrin including a couple of new arrangements by one of their own, Timothy Takach.

May 22–28The Business of Angels: English Recorder Music from the Stuart Era

(Pipistrelle Music PIP1110)Alison Melville, recordersLucas Harris, archlute and baroque guitarNadina Mackie Jackson, baroque bassoonBorys Medicky, harpsichordJoëlle Morton, bass viol

The years surrounding the turn of the 18th century marked one of the recorder’s golden ages in England, when the “common flute” appeared in many performance contexts and a wealth of music for it was composed, published, and played by professionals and amateurs alike. This CD offers a snapshot of that era, featuring works from instruction manuals and transcriptions of works for other instruments.

May 29–June 4 Homage to Astor Piazzolla

(Opening Day ODR 7396)Ensemble Vivant

Astor Piazzolla (1921–1992) was an Argentine tango composer and bandoneón player who revolutionized the traditional tango with a style called nuevo tango, incorporating elements from jazz and classical music. The trio Ensemble Vivant is aided by Julien Labro, a musician steeped in the music of Piazzolla, in delivering a fiery and sensual performance of the Argentine composer’s music.

Featured Contemporary ComposerWFIU’s composer for the month of May is Paul Chihara. Paul Seiko Chihara was born in Seattle, Washington in 1938 and received his doctorate from Cornell University in 1965 as a student of Robert Palmer. He also studied with Nadia Boulanger in Paris, Ernst Pepping in Berlin, and with Gunther Schuller at Tanglewood. Chihara is professor of theory and composition and chair of the Visual Media Program (film music) at UCLA. He joined the faculty in 1966 and subsequently founded and directed the Twice Ensemble and conducted the Collegium Musicum. He has taught at the California Institute of Technology and the California Institute of the Arts, and was composer-in-residence for the Marlboro Music Festival in Vermont. Chihara’s music reflects interest in a variety of musical styles, and often shows influence from Asian music and culture through his shifts in color and limited movements in pitch. He has also been known to borrow from chant and traditional folk songs in his music. His compositions have won numerous awards and have been played by notable ensembles around the world. He has received commissions from the Boston Symphony, London Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic, the Cleveland Orchestra, and the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, the National Endowment for the Arts, among others. While composer-in-residence for The San Francisco Ballet, he wrote critically-praised scores for the ballets The Tempest and Shin-ju. His symphonic, chamber and solo works are programmed internationally. His numerous honors include The Lili Boulanger Memorial Award. Active in the ballet world, Mr. Chihara was composer-in-residence for thirteen

years at the San Francisco Ballet. While there, he wrote many works, including Shin-ju (based on the plays by the Japanese dramatist Chikamatsu), as well as the first full-length American ballet, The Tempest. He was the first composer-in-residence of the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, and more recently, he served as composer-in-residence with the Mancini Institute. In addition to his many concert works, Mr. Chihara also served as music supervisor at Buena Vista Pictures and composed scores for some one hundred motion pictures and television series. He has worked with such directors as Sidney Lumet, Louis Malle, and Arthur Penn. His movies include Prince of the City, The Morning After, and Crossing Delancey, and series for television China Beach, Noble House, and 100 Centre Street. He’s worked on Broadway as well, as composer for the musical version of James Clavell’s Shogun, and as musical consultant/arranger for Duke Ellington’s Sophisticated Ladies. Chihara’s works have been widely recorded. His compositions appear on many labels including BMG Records, Reference Recordings, and Vox Candide. He was named Composer of the Year for 2008 by the Classical Recording Foundation in New York. WFIU will feature music written by Paul Chihara throughout May.

Jazz NotesLast year an amazing trove of big-band era radio broadcasts turned up—some 1,000 discs of live performances of leading jazz bands recorded in the late 1930s. The “Savory Collection,” named after the engineer who recorded the broadcasts, includes new and often crystal clear musical snapshots of jazz greats such as Coleman Hawkins, Billie Holiday, and Lester Young, performing in the prime of their careers. Loren Schoenberg, the executive director of the National Jazz Museum in Harlem who helped secure the collection for preservation, recently visited WFIU and was a guest on Joe Bourne’s Just You and Me. While Schoenberg was here, he chatted with Night Lights host David Brent Johnson and played numerous selections from the Savory Collection that have been unheard since their original broadcast.

“Listening to the Savory Collection With Loren Schoenberg” airs on Night Lights Saturday, May 7 at 11 p.m. On May 28, Night Lights honors the Memorial Day holiday with “Reminiscing in Tempo: Grief and Remembrance in Jazz and Popular Song,” focusing on compositions by Duke Ellington, Oliver Nelson, and others—commemorating both national figures and loved ones with music. Our Friday evening program Afterglow also pays tribute to Memorial Day with a program about Glenn Miller’s Army Air Force band, featuring rarely heard radio broadcasts and an interview with Nat Peck—a trombonist who joined Miller’s wartime orchestra in 1943 at the age of 19 and went overseas with Miller the following year. The AAF, as it came to be known, started out as a 40-piece orchestra and eventually encompassed a big band unit, an easy-listening strings ensemble, a modern-jazz small group, a vocal group, and a pianist/singer duo as well. “Sustain the Wings: Major Glenn Miller Goes to War” airs Friday, May 27 at 10 p.m. Other Afterglow highlights this month include a CD feature on Frank Sinatra and Antonio Carlos Jobim’s late-1960s collaboration, a combined birthday tribute program to songwriters Hal David and Bob Dylan, and a new-releases show spotlighting Everybody Wants to Be a Cat, a recent anthology of songs from Disney films interpreted by jazz and popular song artists.

The Last Boy by Jane LeavyAirs: May 19 to June 27 (approx. 28 episodes)

Sports writer Jane Leavy, author of the New York Times bestseller Sandy Koufax: A Lefty’s Legacy, returns with a biography of an American original—number 7, Mickey Mantle. Drawing on more than five hundred interviews with friends and family, teammates and opponents, she delivers the definitive account of Mantle’s life, mining the mythology of “The Mick” for the true story of a luminous and illustrious talent with an achingly damaged soul.

The Last Boy is a baseball tapestry that weaves together episodes from the author’s weekend with Mantle in Atlantic City, where she interviewed her hero in 1983 after he was banned from baseball, with reminiscences from friends and family of the boy from Commerce, Oklahoma, who would lead the Yankees to seven world championships, be voted the American League’s Most Valuable Player three times, win the Triple Crown in 1956, and duel teammate Roger Maris for Babe Ruth’s home run crown in the summer of 1961. Subtitled Mickey Mantle and the End of America’s Childhood, the book transcends the hyperbole of hero worship to reveal the man

behind the coast-to-coast smile, who grappled with a wrenching childhood, crippling injuries, and a genetic predisposition to drunkenness. Leavy chronicles her search to find out more about the person he was to explain his mystifying hold on a generation of baseball fans, who were seduced by that lopsided, gap-toothed grin. It is an uncommon biography, a portrait of an icon, and an investigation of memory itself. How long was the Tape Measure Home Run? Did Mantle swing the same way right-handed and left-handed? What really happened to his knee in the 1951 World Series? What became of the red-haired, freckle-faced boy known back home as Mickey Charles? Jane Leavy is also author of the comic novel Squeeze Play, which Entertainment Weekly called “the best novel ever written about baseball.”

If you own a life insurance policy with accumulated cash value, you’re essentially sitting on a pile of money. When the original purpose for the protection no longer applies—such as to educate children now grown or to provide financial security for a spouse now deceased—your life insurance can be redirected to help support a worthwhile cause, such as WFIU. One way to do it is simply to name WFIU as the primary beneficiary of your policy or have us receive a percentage of the benefits. Naming WFIU as a beneficiary costs you nothing, and is a meaningful way to make certain your assets ultimately serve the programs and the people most important to you. If your goals change in the future, beneficiary designations can of course be changed. Another way is to assign WFIU ownership of a life insurance policy and also name us as the beneficiary. When you do that, the following good things happen:

• You receive an income tax charitable deduction.

• You realize tax savings from use of the deduction. These savings can be invested for future income.

• You may reduce your estate taxes. This could happen because you have removed the life insurance policy from your estate.

As always, it is best to consult your attorney or tax advisor to help you decide on the best approach if you are considering a substantial gift of life insurance to a charity. WFIU’s Gifts and Grants Officer Nancy Krueger would love to help you get started. Contact her at 812-855-2935 or [email protected] with any questions about life insurance giving opportunities at WFIU.

Washington UpdateAs Directions of Sound went to press, Congress was expected to approve a continuing resolution to fund the federal government for the remainder of this fiscal year. This bill would preserve the funding for public broadcasting that a House bill passed in March would have zeroed out. Also, the continuing resolution restores the Corporation for Public Broadcasting’s two-year advance appropriations, an arrangement that for years has allowed stations to plan special projects beyond the current year. The CPB would get an across-the-board cut of two-tenths percent for the coming fiscal year (FY2012), but would see no further decrease for FY2013. We are cautiously optimistic about this news, and additionally pleased that, unlike the House bill passed in March that would have forbidden stations to spend federal funding on programming, this bill contains no such restrictions. Listeners like you have helped preserve funding for public broadcasting simply by speaking up. You may continue to do so at 170MillionAmericans.org.

Freedom Riders: American ExperienceMonday, May 16 at 9pm and Sunday, May 22 at 1pm

In 1961, segregation seemed to have an overwhelming grip on American society. Many states violently enforced the policy, while the federal government, under the Kennedy admin-istration, remained indifferent, preoccu-pied with matters abroad. That is, until an integrated band of college students—many of whom were the first in their families to attend a university—decided to risk everything and buy a ticket on a Greyhound bus bound for the Deep South. They called themselves the Freedom Riders, and they managed to bring the president and the entire American public face to face with the challenge of correcting civil-rights inequities that plagued the nation. The self-proclaimed “Freedom Riders” came from all strata of American society—black and white, young and old, male and female, northern and southern. They em-barked on the rides knowing the danger, but firmly commit-ted to the ideals of non-violent protest, aware that their actions could provoke a savage response, but willing to put their lives on the line for the cause of justice. From award-winning filmmaker Stanley Nelson (Wounded Knee, Jonestown: The Life and Death of Peoples Temple, The Murder of Emmett Till), Freedom Riders is the first feature-length film about this courageous band of civil-rights activists. Gaining impressive access to influential figures on both sides of the issue, Nelson chronicles a chapter of American history that stands as an astonishing testament to the accomplishment of youth and what can result from the incredible combination of personal conviction and the courage to organize against all odds. Says director Nelson, “The lesson of the Freedom Rides is that great change can come from a few small steps taken by courageous people. And that sometimes to do any great thing, it’s important that we step out alone.”

8:00 PM THE WATER-ENERGY CRUNCH
