Really crossing my fingers we get an episode on the disability rights movement considering how influential the ADA was for today's public infinstructure and also how forgotten it is

FELICIA!

[@alexwixom4599]

I'm excited! But I am curious where something like prohibition lands on this spectrum of resistance? Or was it oppression posing as resistance? I mean there were protests in favor of the ban, that's a kind of resistance, right?

[@nappywootz]

Ill be watching!!!

I'm really hoping that resources are mentioned so that I can be more involved in my local community. Alone, I can't change much, but I want to learn how to join those resisting and/or how to organize.

[@bawintermage8351]

We need this, especially in Florida!!

[@Caterfree10]

A very timely series. I am not looking forward to the comment sections devolving bc bad faith actors, but I am excited for this nonetheless.

[@Sandra-hc4vo]

Look forward to this

[@EM_1989]

[@abracadaverous]

Not a moment too soon.

[@garyjohnson8327]

Why do I feel like this is going to ignore First Nations people, again.

[@tontocorazon]

Hell yeah, this rules

[@Gwynbleidd503]

PBS has blocked my friend from this channel because their user name is IDF _ Child _ Eraser which is meant to provoke thought and does not violate rules yet PBS has taken the bold step to disallow their comments which i find to be very much against the concept of resistance and lets you know where they ACTUALLY stand on the moral issue of our time
thanks for the video PBS ❤❤❤
