Walt Disney In 1966, the year Walt Disney died, 240 million people saw a Disney movie, 100 million tuned in to a Disney television program, 80 million bought Disney merchandise, and close to seven million visited Disneyland. Few creative figures before or since have held such a long-lasting place in American life and popular culture. American Experience offers an unprecedented look at the life and legacy of one of America’s most enduring and influential storytellers in Walt Disney, a new two-part, four-hour film premiering Monday and Tuesday, Sep. 14-15 from 8-10 p.m. The film examines Disney’s complex life and enduring legacy, featuring rare archival footage from the Disney vaults, scenes from some of his greatest films, and interviews with biogra- phers, animators and artists who worked on early films, includingSnow White, and the designers who helped turn his dream of Disneyland into reality. Disney’s movies grew out of his own life experiences. He told stories of outsiders struggling for acceptance and belonging, while questioning the conventions of class and authority. As Disney rose to prominence and gained financial security, his work became increasingly celebratory of the American way of life that made his unlikely success possible. Yet despite that success, he was driven and restless, a demanding perfectionist on whom decades of relentless work and chain-smoking would take their toll. Never satisfied with his previous efforts, he always pushed forward to a new adventure, but his attention to detail and quest for innovation frequently meant delays and cost overruns. When his employees organized and went on strike, Disney felt betrayed, unable to understand how people who worked for him could be unhappy; years later he called them communists before the House Un-American Activities Committee. “Oftentimes, the character at the center of Disney’s work is an outsider, an underdog of sorts, who is trying in a way to buck the system and find their way,” says American Experience executive producer Mark Samels. “I think Walt Disney really saw himself that way.” WTVP—More Choices For complete listings information, please visit wtvp.org 3 3 WTVP 47.1 HD WTVP 47.1 HD WTVP 47.1 HD WTVP 47.1 HD WTVP 47.1 HD WTVP 47.1 HD Daytime Schedule Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday 5:00 BBC WORLD NEWS 5:30 ARTHUR When Scary Things 6:00 ODD SQUAD 6:30 WILD KRATTS Happen 7:00 CURIOUS GEORGE Sometimes scary things happen. 7:30 CURIOUS GEORGE Hurricanes, tornadoes, thunder- storms…Things that can leave kids 8:00 DANIEL TIGER’S NEIGHBORHOOD scared, confused and feeling unsafe.

    10 Creative Ways to Explore a Bible Passage by Jeremy Steele (www.umcom.org)(Note: This is a helpful and interesting article. Since space is limited, this will be a two or three part article, spread out in two or three newsletters.) #1 #14 Last month (February 2017 Methodist Dimension), we covered 1) Decode the Story and 2) Decipher the Argument, as ways to explore the Bible. Here are additional suggestions of out-of-the-box ways to explore, study and better communicate the Bible’s message. Good to the last drop 3. Design a comic strip: This method can be great when used with the first two ideas. Break the passage into eight or fewer discrete scenes and draw the key action of each scene paired with dialogue or important narration. This is all about exploring the passage by imagining what else is happening in the surroundings. What are the reactions of the other people? Do any props come into play? How are they held/used? How does the setting shape the scene? Don’t be afraid to use stick figures! 4. Create a meme: The current trend of placing a catchy word or phrase on top of an image is not only fun, but can also help you explore the Bible. Imagine that you are encouraging people to read a specific passage of the Bible. What phrase would hook Volume V – Issue 3 March 2017 people to read more? What image both matches the theme of the verse, and inspires curiosity? sample of a ‘meme’ 2017 5. Become a Bible translator: Don’t worry; we’re not arguing that you need to take several years of biblical languages to understand the Bible.

    lifestyle WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 2014 GOSSIP Bradley Cooper is ‘living the dream’ he 39-year-old actor can’t believe the success he is enjoying in his career and feels lucky to work with such respected names as Clint TEastwood - who will direct him in ‘American Sniper’ - and filmmaker David O Russell, who directed him in both ‘Silver Linings Playbook’ and ‘American Hustle’. Responding to a comment he always seems “honored and grateful” for Oscar attention, he said: “It would be hard not to be. I get to do the things I dreamt of as a kid, like working now with Clint Eastwood and being able to work twice with David O Russell. I am absolutely living the dream.” Bradley has received his second Best Actor nomination in a row this year and admits he still doesn’t think he deserves to be consid- ered. Speaking at the annual Academy Awards Nominees Luncheon at the Beverly Hilton hotel in Beverly Hills yesterday he added: “To be able to be a part of this kind of thing two years in a row, I just keep waiting for them to take me away and say, ‘Sorry, sir, what are you doing here?’ Maybe it’s the way I was raised.” Rosie Whiteley he pair - who live together in Los Angeles - have to marry been dating since 2010 and are said to have plans to Ttie the knot near the blonde beauty’s parents home town in south west England.

    ACHIEVING EQUALITY Student Profles of American Changemakers By the Students of Lowell High School’s Seminar on American Diversity Edited by Jessica Lander Lowell, Massachusetts Foreword Whose history do we study? Whose stories do we remember? Whose lives do we celebrate? These are some of the questions my students asked as we set out to research, edit, and write Achieving Equality. This year, I have had the privilege of guiding these students in a seminar that explores the history of diversity in America. My students are deeply qualifed to tackle this challenging and meaningful work. They attend Lowell High School in the historic mill city of Lowell, Massachusetts. The city is rich with the stories of immigrants who brought with them hopes and dreams for a more just future. From the Puritans in the mid-1600s, to the Polish in the early 1800s, to the Cambodians in the late 1900s, and to the Syrians who are arriving now, communities from around the world have always found a home in Lowell. More than one hundred years before the Little Rock Nine integrated Central High in 1957, Lowell High became the very frst integrated high school in the United States: open to all from its founding in the 1830s. Today, our school is one of the most diverse in the nation, home to students from more than 60 countries across fve continents. In our class, we have debated the long and often messy history of America’s fght for equality, justice, and recognition – a path that is rarely linear. Our understanding has been made richer by the diverse personal identities and histories of the students in our class.
