Huge congratulations to BTPM NPR's Emyle Watkins on winning second place at the Journalists Association of New York (JANY) Awards this past weekend at Syracuse University! Emyle's reporting on Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.'s carcinogen emissions in Niagara Falls, NY was recognized as among the best investigative broadcast journalism in New York State. We are incredibly proud of your great work!
Our educator seminar was a huge success! Nearly 40 teachers spent the day exploring fresh ways to teach the American Revolution — from the film screening to powerful sessions on Indigenous narratives and Black perspectives. After lunch, participants dove into hands-on mini sessions, then tested classroom-ready activities focused on historical perspectives and core themes like liberty, freedom, opportunity, and democracy. Thank you to everyone who made this day impactful! "The American Revolution," a film by Ken Burns, Sarah Botstein, and David Schmidt, premieres on BTPM PBS on November 16.
