PBS SHOW ON BURMA
PBS TV SHOW FOCUSES ON (Lack of) BURMA HUMAN RIGHTS
RIGHTS & WRONGS # 206
Chris Walker and I have just returned from Burma where we managed to
sneak in a betacam video camera. We produced a television piece on the
human rights situation in Burma. It includes video from throughout Burma
and areas on the Thai border including testimony from victims of forced
labor. The report will be shown on Rights & Wrongs, carried by many
public television stations in the U.S. Times of transmission vary, but the
show on Burma will be distributed May 5 and locally broadcast sometime
after that. The Burma show is number 206. Call your local PBS station
and ask when this show will be broadcast. If the station does not carry
Rights & Wrongs, tell them they should contact WNET in New York and
get it!
