KCTS 9 Honors Asian Pacific American Heritage Month

Pacific Heartbeat TUESDAYS | May 5 at 2p | May 12 at 1pPacific Heartbeat gives viewers a glimpse into the lives of contemporary Pacific Islanders – their culture, way of life and the issues they face. This month, we’re offering two new episodes: “Anote’s Ark” explores the effects of rising sea levels on the island of Kiribati; and “Power Meri” follows the journey of Papua New Guinea’s first national women’s rugby team to the 2017 World Cup.

Guru Nanak: The Founder of Sikhism WED May 6 | 2pThis fascinating film recounts the life story of the 15th-century teacher and revolutionary activist from Punjab, India, who founded the Sikh faith – the world’s fifth largest religion. The documentary also explores how Guru Nanak’s legacy inspires modern Sikh Americans to exercise compassion, take risks, challenge established norms, and help others.

Shades of Indigo WED May 6 | 3:30pThis film, which follows the story of Bellingham farmers Sam and Rob Dhaliwal, provides a glimpse into the Sikh immigrant experience in Washington state. It’s a story of passion for agriculture that runs deep in a family; a story of growth and prosperity, from a small patch of land to a sprawling 400-acre farm; and a story of a father’s grit and experience, combined with his son's academic and technological approach, as they work together to ensure the future of the farm for the next generation.

Hayao Miyazaki: 10 Years with the Master series premiere MON May 11 | 1pThis series offers an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the genius of Japan’s foremost living film director. Hayao Miyazaki is the creator of some of the world’s most iconic and enduring anime feature films, including Howl’s Moving Castle, Princess Mononoke and the Academy Award-winning Spirited Away.

MAY 1–2what to watch

Asian Americans series premiere MON May 11 | 8pThis groundbreaking five-part documentary series examines the fastest-growing racial/ethnic group in the United States. Told through individual lives and personal histories, the series examines the significant role of Asian Americans in shaping American history and identity, from the first wave of Asian immigrants in the 1850s and identity politics during the social and cultural turmoil of the 20th century to modern refugee crises in a globally connected world.

American Experience: Mr. Tornado TUE May 19 | 8pThe Super Outbreak of 1974 was the most intense tornado outbreak on record, tearing a vicious path of destruction across 13 states and killing more than 300 people. Meteorologist Tetsuya Theodore “Ted” Fujita spent 10 months studying the outbreak’s aftermath in the most extensive aerial tornado study ever conducted. His groundbreaking work in research and applied science saved thousands of lives and helped Americans prepare for and respond to dangerous weather phenomena.

Silent Sacrifice – Stories of Japanese American Incarceration TUE May 26 | 1pIn February 1942, just 10 weeks after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, which authorized the incarceration of any people considered a threat to national security. Silent Sacrifice shares the experiences of Japanese Americans whose families, farms and businesses were tragically impacted as they were forced to abandon their homes and report to internment camps for the duration of the war.Photo courtesy of KVPT/ValleyPBS.

Saving Notre Dame WED May 20 | 9pWhen the roof of Notre-Dame de Paris erupted in flames in April of 2019, firefighters battled for nine grueling hours to save the historic cathedral. Still, Paris came perilously close to losing the 800-year-old cultural icon. Now, as engineers rebuild the roof and secure the medieval structure, researchers piece together what happened that fateful day to learn how such a catastrophe can be avoided in the future.Photo courtesy of Getty images.

Viral: Antisemitism in Four Mutations TUE May 26 | 9pAntisemitism worldwide is worsening in ways not seen since the 1930s. It’s coming in the forms of vandalism, social media abuse, assault and murder. Like a virus, it is mutating and evolving across cultures, borders and ideologies, making it all but impossible to stop. Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Andrew Goldberg explores its causes and infectious behavior.
