"From Danger to Dignity" (55 minutes)
After more than a century of back-alley tragedies, a national movement to
decriminalize abortion took root. FROM DANGER to DIGNITY combines rare
archival footage with present-day interviews to weave together two
parallel stories: the evolution of underground networks to help women
find safe abortions outside the law and the intensive efforts of
activists and legislators who broke the silence and changed the laws.
"Peak Moment" (28 minutes)
Caren Black and Christopher Paddon couldn’t find mentors to teach them
self-reliant living when they became aware of peak oil. So they created a
homestead and opened their doors to training others. People can take a
personalized Lifeboat Course online or in person, where hands-on
learning includes food production with domestic animals and gardens,
renewable energy, and carpentry skills. “We’re all in this together,”
Christopher notes, so the couple educate, volunteer and share to also
make their community more resilient.
"Your Sanctuary" (19 minutes)
US Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta discusses early days in Monterey, the
battle and process leading to the designation of Monterey Bay National
Marine Sanctuary, and what steps should be taken to ensure our oceans
are protected and preserved for future generations. In this unique
interview, Secretary Panetta gives his perspective on ocean issues and
the movement to create more Marine Protected Areas along the US
coastline.
