Latino Vets Angered by Ken Burns Film

Activists who believe Latinos deserve more recognition for their contributions during World War II have created an agonizing political problem for PBS and filmmaking star Ken Burns.

Several Latino leaders and military veterans, angry that Burns’ high-profile documentary series "The War” includes no conversations with Latinos who fought, are demanding changes. PBS and Burns want to satisfy an important constituency, without the precedent of a filmmaker forced to change his vision due to a protest.
...
Burns’ film focuses on the wartime experiences of people from four communities across the country — Waterbury, Conn.; Mobile, Ala.; Sacramento, Calif.; and Luverne, Minn. He weaves their individual stories about combat together to tell how the war changed lives, and changed the world.

Since he’s spent his career trying to tell overlooked stories in American history, Burns said he can appreciate the Latino community’s concerns.

"We did not set out to exclude Latinos, or any other group for that matter,” he told The Associated Press. "In fact, thousands of stories have not been included. We set out to explore the human experience of war and combat based on a handful of stories told by individuals in only four American towns.”

Still, it hasn’t escaped the Latino groups’ notice that blacks are talked to in the film about segregated forces, and Japanese-Americans about their internment.
...
Burns’ stature makes the issue so crucial. "A lot of people regard Ken Burns as the country’s documentarian,” Rivas-Rodriguez said.

She would like to see the project expanded to include the Latino experience, perhaps even by a couple of hours. A separate film has little appeal, because few beyond those directly involved would care, she said.

Waiting to get in-line:

Native Americans
Eskimos
Gays and Lesbians
Serbo-Croatian Fisherman
Quaker conscientous objectors

With a little luck, the Film could be longer than the war!

[Jrand73]

Vibes for DR DAKOTACELT.

[Jrand73]

Very interesting TOD....hmmmm,,,,,

Alan J. Pakula directing Brandon deWilde and Dean Stockwell in BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN.

Edward Dymytryk directing Carroll Baker and Suzanne Pleshette in THELMA AND LOUISE.

DR LAURA said that the Dutchman's pipe wasn't very impressive.

Is that a euphemism?  

[singdaw]

TOD:

Porky's Revenge with Meryl Streep and Sir Ian McKellen.

[singdaw]

DR DakotaCelt, you made me teary, writing about your father.  Sorry I can't help you with the music request.

Sending many ***SUPPORTIVE VIBES*** to you and your whole family.

[singdaw]

WOD:  The board had mogigraphia yesterday; we did not reach the magic 400.

[singdaw]

DR JoseSPiano - You're quite welcome; glad they were enjoyed.

As for the tart comment...well, I just can't...it's too easy!  

[Jrand73]

I bet DR CILLA LIZ has a mogigraphia expert that she can put on the stand if she needs him.

[Jrand73]

Is that a euphemism?  

We shall have to get an explanation from DR LAURA.

[singdaw]

I had the weirdest dream last night...

At the last minute, I decided to book a flight to LA.  I arrived at some sort of large hangar/warehouse, where they were having a HHW gathering.  There were large displays of books and CDs everywhere, and many H/Ks were there.  There was this important dance rehearsal going on...I can't remember if bk was leading the rehearsal, or just participating, but he was definitely dancing!

That is all...

[singdaw]

Oh, DRs...

You all would have been so proud of DR JoseSPiano last night!!!

He was running hither and thither, being Official and otherwise Generally Indispensible.  Mr. John Kander obviously puts great trust and confidence in him.  And it was a great moment when he told Mr. John Kander goodbye, because it was his last day on staff, and Mr. John Kander said it certainly was NOT - he was needed and he was coming back.  Especially sweet because our DR JoseSPiano was not even originally supposed to be around as long as this weekend!!  So great things are definitely in store for him.

DR JoseSPiano, please confirm that it is OK to post general impressions of the dress rehearsal.  I would not want any comments copied by a Guest and re-posted elsewhere on the web to get you into any trouble...

So, you and your hump met Mr. Kander?

[Ben]

Mogigraphia

[Ben]

I have lots of work today so I will be in and out (although I've never been to In 'n Out Burger).

Later, gaters.

[singdaw]

So, you and your hump met Mr. Kander?

 

No, we stayed in the back row on the side and made nary a peep.  Well, actually, we laughed quite a lot.  But no, no socializing with the mucky-mucks.

[TCB]

I fear DR George will be late to work today, or should I say later than usual.   I guess there is a power outage down in Olympia-land, that is not expected to be fixed until 10:00 a.m.

[singdaw]

I can't remember if I offered ***TRAVEL VIBES*** to DR elmore3003.

Is it too late?

[FJL]

Vibes to Dakota

[elmore3003]

I can't remember if I offered ***TRAVEL VIBES*** to DR elmore3003.

Good morning, all!  This goddam computer I'm on is not doing too well, and this is my third attempt to post!

[Dan (the Man)]

~^~^~^~^~^  VIBES FOR DR DAKOTACELT AND HER FATHER  ^~^~^~^~^~

[elmore3003]

No, DR singdaw, you're early.  I fly back to NYC tomorrow afternoon, and I will be begging for travel vibes all morning.  You cannot miss such a blatant and fearful cry for safe travel.
