Pinkalicious imagines creative possibilities everywhere she looks. She is an artist at heart – and, like most creative people, she sees the world differently from others. She knows what she likes, and is not afraid to express herself – though she sometimes needs help from her brother, Peter, and her neighborhood friends. Designed for children ages 3-5, PINKALICIOUS & PETERRIFIC encourages kids to engage in the creative arts and self-expression, covering areas such as music, dance and visual arts. Based on the best-selling Pinkalicious book series by Victoria Kann, this new multiplatform media property will air on PBS stations, the 24/7 PBS KIDS channel and PBS KIDS digital platforms. Premieres February 19 • Dorothea Gillim, series executive producer • Kayla Erickson, voice, “Pinkalicious” • Akua F. Kouyate-Tate, vice president, Education, Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing Arts, and series curriculum advisor • Vaneese Thomas, blues recording artist (The Long Journey Home, Blues for pbs.org • pbs.org/pressroom • facebook.com/pbs • youtube.com/pbs • twitter.com/pbspressroom My Father) featured in an interstitial in the series PR Contact: Maria Vera Whelan, [email protected]: 703-739-3225; 703-541-9693 9:45 PBS Executive Session press conference (Huntington) • Paula Kerger, PBS President & CEO PR contact: Jennifer Byrne, [email protected]; 703-739-5487 10:30 INDEPENDENT LENS “Dolores” press conference (Huntington) Dolores Huerta, an important, yet largely unknown civil rights activist, was an equal partner in cofounding the first farm workers unions with Cesar Chavez. Her enormous contributions have gone largely unrecognized. Huerta tirelessly led the fight for racial and labor justice alongside Chavez, became one of the most defiant feminists of the 20th century, and, at 87, she continues the fight to this day. With intimate and unprecedented access to this intensely private mother of 11, “Dolores” reveals the raw, personal stakes involved in committing one’s life to social change. Premieres March 27 • Dolores Huerta, activist • Benjamin Bratt, consulting producer • Peter Bratt, producer, writer and director • Lois Vossen, series executive producer PR contact: Donna Hardwick, [email protected]; 415-356-8383 ext. 241 INDEPENDENT LENS “Tell Them We Are Rising: The Story of Black Colleges and Universities” press conference (Huntington) This film tells the rich, complex, and untold story of historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs). A haven for black intellectuals, artists and revolutionaries — and a path of promise toward the American dream — HBCUs have educated the architects of freedom movements and cultivated leaders in every field, while remaining unapologetically black for more than 150 years. From the earliest attempts of slaves to gain an education to today’s campuses, the film examines the incalculable impact that HBCUs have had on American history, culture and national identity. Premieres February 19 • Stanley Nelson, filmmaker, producer and director • Dr. Michael Lomax, president, The United Negro College Fund • Dr. Mary Schmidt Campbell, president, Spelman College • Lois Vossen, series executive producer pbs.org • pbs.org/pressroom • facebook.com/pbs • youtube.com/pbs • twitter.com/pbspressroom PR contact: Donna Hardwick, [email protected]; 415-356-8383 ext. 241 11:30 Writing break 12:15 Buffet lunch (Viennese) 12:45 MASTERPIECE “Little Women” press conference (Viennese) Based on the classic novel by Louisa May Alcott and loved by generations of women worldwide, “Little Women” is a universal coming-of-age story. Set against the backdrop of the Civil War, the story follows sisters Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy March on their journey from childhood to adulthood. With the help of their mother, Marmee —and while their father is away at war — the girls navigate what it means to be a young woman: from sibling rivalry and first love to loss and marriage. This two-part adaptation is from the award-winning creator of “Call the Midwife,” Heidi Thomas, who also wrote “Cranford” and the latter-day “Upstairs Downstairs” for PBS MASTERPIECE. Premieres May 13 Producer and writer panel: • Colin Callender, executive producer • Heidi Thomas, screenwriter and executive producer • Rebecca Eaton, series executive producer Actor panel: • Annes Elwy, actor, “Beth March” • Willa Fitzgerald, actor, “Meg March” • Jonah Hauer-King, actor, “Theodore ‘Laurie’ Laurence” • Maya Hawke, actor, “Jo March” • Angela Lansbury, actor, “Aunt March” • Emily Watson, actor, “Marmee March” • Rebecca Eaton, series executive producer PR contacts: Ellen Dockser, 617-300-5338; [email protected]; Laura Garvey, 617-300-5342; [email protected] 2:30 AMERICAN EXPERIENCE “The Gilded Age” press conference (Huntington) Thirty years after the Civil War, America had transformed itself into an economic powerhouse. But the transformation had created stark new divides in wealth, class and opportunity. The simultaneous rise of a lavishly wealthy one percent and a struggling working class sparked passionate and violent debate over questions still being asked today: How is wealth best distributed, and by what process? Should the government concern itself with economic growth or economic justice? Are we two nations — one for pbs.org • pbs.org/pressroom • facebook.com/pbs • youtube.com/pbs • twitter.com/pbspressroom the rich and one for the poor — or one nation where everyone has a chance to succeed?

Wildlife cameraman Gordon Buchanan (NATURE “Snowbound: Animals of Winter”) and a team of pioneering animal behaviorists join forces to explore stories of animal lives “told” by the animals. ANIMALS WITH CAMERAS, A NATURE MINISERIES showcases a side of the animal kingdom where human cameramen can’t go, and animals become the cinematographers. Through custom, state-of-the-art cameras worn by the animals themselves, sprint across the savanna with a cheetah, plunge into the ocean with a seal and swing through the trees with a chimpanzee. Be privy to their secret lives as never before and uncover some truly unprecedented behavior through their eyes. Each episode features three different species.

Nearly six decades later her acclaimed, groundbreaking play A Raisin in the Sun remains a beloved theatrical jewel, but the fascinating story of its author is not widely known. Filmmaker Tracy Heather Strain explores the life and work of this passionate writer and civil rights advocate, with narration by actress LaTanya Richardson Jackson, the voice of Tony Award-winning actress Anika Noni Rose as Lorraine Hansberry, as well as interviews with Sidney Poitier, Ruby Dee, Harry Belafonte, and Louis Gossett, Jr. The documentary is part of AMERICAN MASTERS’ year-long online campaign Inspiring Woman.

    Public Relations Review 45 (2019) 101773 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Public Relations Review journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/pubrev E-Racing together: How starbucks reshaped and deflected racial conversations on social media T ⁎ Alison N. Novaka, , Julia C. Richmondb a Rowan University, 301 High Street, 325, Glassboro, NJ, United States b Drexel University, 3141 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: In March 2015, Starbucks introduced its #RaceTogether campaign to encourage patrons to Starbucks discuss race and ethnicity in global culture. Public reaction to #RaceTogether was largely critical Twitter and resulted in Starbucks' abandoning the campaign within a year. Through an analysis of 5000 Reputation management #RaceTogether tweets, this study examines how users engaged the campaign and each other. Race This study draws three conclusions. First, most #RaceTogether posts featured extremist and Brand racist positions. Second, #RaceTogether posts deflected race conversations and critiqued the Social media organizations role in national racial discourses. Finally, posts in the digital space critiqued Starbucks as a location for inter-racial dialogue because of brand perception. This research did not receive any specific grant from funding agencies in the public, com- mercial, or not-for-profit sectors. 1. Introduction In March 2015, Starbucks introduced its #RaceTogether campaign designed to encourage patrons to openly discuss and debate the contemporary treatment and place of race and ethnicity in global culture. In the aftermath of police violence targeted towards American minorities (and specifically Black Americans), the corporation intended to provide a physical and digital space forcus- tomers to reflect on recent events (Hernandez, 2015).
