American Radio Works "War on Poverty: From the Great Society to the Great Recession" President Lyndon B. Johnson declared a war on poverty in 1964. He believed a mighty nation could eliminate want. After all, America had won World War II and was enjoying spectacular prosperity. Almost five decades later, the poverty rate is lower but the war is far from won. In the wake of the Great Recession, a new generation of Americans is struggling with economic deprivation. "War on Poverty" will blend contemporary storytelling with rich archival audio to examine the modern face of poverty, and to ask why LBJ's dream of a Great Society is still beyond reach. (From APM)

American RadioWorks "Testing Teachers" Kids need good teachers. It's something people know in their gut, but it's only recently that researchers have begun developing ways to measure the quality of teachers. This documentary will take us to some of the nation's poorest schools to understand why teacher quality is fast becoming the next frontier in the fight to equalize educational opportunity in the United States.
