Did PBS do any documentaries on Jazz?
PBS is known for doing in-depth documentaries on a variety of topics. It is quite possible that there are multiple jazz documentaries but under different names. They may also have jazz covered in a section of a documentary on a particular artist or music through the years.
There is an in-depth documentary on jazz that took place over a 10 day period in 2001. You will need to contact PBS to see about ordering that documentary if it is available for purchase. This is the page detailing the breakdown of the series.
pbs.org/jazz/about/about_behind_the_scen... This series is broken down by time period and covers the beginnings of jazz through its peak, some legends of jazz and what is occurring with jazz for the year 2000 and beyond.
Partly it’s the fact that it is on PBS and it it is an article of faith among conservatives that PBS is run by a bunch of commie, pinko surrender monkeys who use taxpayer dollars to grind out streams of anti-American propaganda. Forget the fact that most of money comes from such dubious sources as General Motors, Anheiser-Busch, Bank of America and generous foundations established by thoughtful capitalists of the past. Keep those kids away from PBS; they might see a gay cartoon character.
Another part of the problem is that Burns himself has said he wasn’t making a celebratory documentary and that he took care to frame his subject (in the words of one veteran) as a “necessary” war, not a “good” war. This infuriates the true belivers to whom war, any war that America gets involved in, is a good war simply because we’re in it.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
