The Final Report: Battle for Fallujah

March 31, 2004. Insurgents in Fallujah ambush an American convoy, killing four civilian contractors, further prompting an angry mob to set the vehicles ablaze and mutilate the corpses. The entire gruesome episode is captured on tape, horrifying the American public and sparking national controversy over the role of private contractors in war zones. Now, Battle for Fallujah documents how the U.S. military's subsequent attempts to destroy the insurgency in Fallujah resulted in increasing chaos.

First Letters

First Letters

First Letters is a compelling story about two different kindergarten classes brought together by a pen pal program. The letters written between rural Newberry Elementary and urban Rawlings Elementary, only 20 miles apart, show a new way to tackle school segregation. Meeting their pen pals in person shows these young children that even though they look different, they're very much the same. This innovative program teaches kindergarteners that reading, writing, and diversity can all be learned through their First Letters.
