    The Creek Runs Red Trailer The EPA calls the mining town of Picher, Oklahoma the most toxic place in America, but the Quapaw tribe still calls it home. Today the town is divided by fears of serious health risks, environmental politics, civic pride, and old racial tensions between the Quapaw people and the non-Indian community who share the town. The Creek Runs Red explores the human response to an environmental disaster and the complex connection between people and place. Make a comment about the trailer or the program.
    30 Second Trailer for The Oneida Speak In 1935, while the country was deep in the depression, a group of Oneidas in Wisconsin took advantage of a federal writing program designed to employ Americans and offer economic relief. Many, who wrote in their own language, recorded their daily life on the farm to a federal infiltrator sent to drive people off the land to a devastating small pox epidemic. Make a comment about the trailer or the program.

The 4th episode in the 4 part series, Bad Sugar, airs Thursday April 10. Please check pbs.org for the time of showing in your area.

The Last Conquistador uses the construction and dedication of a monument (the largest of its kind ever created in human history) to the conquistador Juan de Onate as a springboard to examine his legacy in New Mexico. While supporters of the statue idolize Onate as "the father of the Hispanic Southwest", others see him as a man who brought enslavement and atrocity. The film will raise difficult questions about the meaning of mestizo identity, about on-going inequalities in the southwest, the meaning of public art, the enshrinement of white supremacy, and a vision of the past that recognizes the dignity and humanity of the Indian people.

Broadcast Date: Tuesday, July 15, 2008 at 10 PM ET. Contact your local PBS station to see if they are carrying it.
