Discussing some of the fascinating engineering that goes into overhead electric power transmission lines.

In the past, power generating plants were only able to serve their local areas. As power plants grew larger and further away from populated areas, the need for ways to efficiently move electricity over long distances has become more and more important. Stringing power lines across the landscape to connect cities to power plants may seem as simple as connecting an extension cord to an outlet, but the engineering behind these electric superhighways is more complicated and fascinating than you might think.

While kids are fleeing chaos in Haiti, the Dominican Republic is building a wall to keep migrants out. Business is booming for human smugglers on Haiti’s border with the Dominican Republic as Haitians flee the social and economic crisis at home. But the influx of thousands of Haitians, many of them children, is stoking xenophobia in DR, which has begun work on a border wall to keep migrants out.

TALKING BLACK in AMERICA follows the unique circumstances of the descendants of American slaves and their incredible impact on American life and language. Speech varieties from the African American community reflect the imprint of African language systems, the influences of regional British and Southern American dialects, and the creativity and resilience of people living through oppression, segregation and the fight for equality.

Filmed across the United States, TALKING BLACK in AMERICA is a startling revelation of language as legacy, identity and triumph over adversity. With Reverend Jeremiah Wright, DJ Nabs, Professor Griff, Quest M.C.O.D.Y., Dahlia the Poet, Nicky Sunshine and many others.
