From his birth in the Bitterroot Mountains among the Salish Tribe, to his exploits as a warrior with the Lemhi Shoshone and Bannocks, Washakie was recognized early as an extraordinary person. But he made his historical claim to greatness in the second half of the 19th century, as chief of the Eastern Shoshone. He led the tribe in battle and in peace, and navigated the difficult negotiations with the U.S. government that eventually provided the Shoshone with a permanent homeland along the eastern slopes of the Wind River Mountains. The Documentary, funded in part by the Wyoming State Legislature, features a wealth of historical photographs and artwork, as well as aerial photography shot over the Wind River Indian Reservation. Research was conducted at the National Archives, the Smithsonian Institute and museums throughout the West.

TOO MUCH VACATION: From the moment the Bear Family arrives at their mountain cabin, Papa's promise of 'the best vacation ever' begins going down hill like an alpine avalanche.

It becomes increasingly difficult for Papa to keep a smile on his face as he slips down muddy slopes, breaks through the bottom of the rotten rowboat and is chased by little forest critters. Ultimately it rains so much, the run off floods them out and carries a sleeping Papa out to the middle of the lake on his mattress. That's the last straw. Papa's best vacation ever has turned out to be the worst vacation ever.

The 1972 Clean Water Act introduced landmark regulations significantly reducing water pollution in America. However, it did not serve many disadvantaged communities, especially those most vulnerable to our climate crisis.

The long-time voice of sports, ABC's iconic commentator Howard Cosell, dubbed it the first rule of "jockocracy" - sports and politics don't mix. The last thing a nation of couch potatoes wanted to see on their fields of dreams was a political hot potato. Sports, for most Americans, was the sacrosanct refuge where we went to get away from it all, to escape the tension and drama and conflict that colors daily life. But now many of our most important debates about class, race, religion, sex and the raw quest for political power are played out on the field. From the Pee Wee League to the Olympics, sports mirror our polarizing divisions with athletes becoming icons of the divisive debates razing the country's cultural touchstones. Common Ground's second show will examine Americans' perception of the appropriate social role of sports and why we demand that athletes become warrior avatars for our cultural civil wars. Guests: Dave Zirin, Jerry Brewer, Allyson Felix.
60 years ago in Selma, Alabama, state troopers beat peaceful protesters bloody on the Edmund Pettus Bridge as they marched for civil rights. The horror of "Bloody Sunday" and the resilience of the Civil Rights Movement ultimately led to the passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act and many of the landmark achievements that are now directly under attack. As civil rights activists look to history to understand -- and prepare for -- the present, Laura walks the Bridge and talks with, among others, Sheyann Webb Christburg, who marched at the age of eight, Black Voters Matter co-founders LaTosha Brown and Clifford Albright; law professor and author Kimberle Crenshaw and Maya Wiley, President and CEO of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights. What does people power look like today? Plus, a commentary from Laura on name calling then and now. "We're not going to phone bank our way out of this. We're not going to text our way out of this. And in truth, we're not even going to vote our way out of this . . . It's going to take revisiting some of the same strategies that we saw here in Selma, in terms of nonviolent civil disobedience and direct action." - Clifford Albright "When we see and hear and think about fascism, we think about anti-democratic movements in Europe. We think about the Holocaust . . . But for Black people, as Langston Hughes said, you don't have to explain to us what fascism is. We experienced it. That is what we were fighting, for the 60, 70 years after Reconstruction was overthrown." - Kimberle Crenshaw "We're seeing a bill that the Republicans are supporting right now that will cut $800 million from Medicaid. What we're seeing is the demonized poor people and working class folks. But we're gonna stop . . . We are literally gonna stand on the space that if we are the wealthiest in the world, then we need to be the healthiest in the world." - LaTosha Brown Guests: Clifford Albright: Co-Founder & Executive Director, Black Voters Matter; Willard and Kiba Armstead: Veteran & Spouse; Trayvon Bossa: Sigma Chapter Member, Miles College Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity; LaTosha Brown: Co-Founder, Black Voters Matter; Kimberle Crenshaw: Co-Founder & Executive Director, African American Policy Forum; Noelle Damico: Director of Social Justice, The Workers Circle; Melinda Hicks: Child, Spouse & Mother of Veteran; Jaribu Hill: Executive Director & Founder, Mississippi Workers' Center for Human Rights; Myla Person: High School Sophomore, Columbus, Georgia; Ann Toback: CEO, The Workers Circle Sheyann Webb Christburg: Youngest Participant,1965 Bloody Sunday March; Maya Wiley: President & CEO, Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights.

From his birth in the Bitterroot Mountains among the Salish Tribe, to his exploits as a warrior with the Lemhi Shoshone and Bannocks, Washakie was recognized early as an extraordinary person. But he made his historical claim to greatness in the second half of the 19th century, as chief of the Eastern Shoshone. He led the tribe in battle and in peace, and navigated the difficult negotiations with the U.S. government that eventually provided the Shoshone with a permanent homeland along the eastern slopes of the Wind River Mountains. The Documentary, funded in part by the Wyoming State Legislature, features a wealth of historical photographs and artwork, as well as aerial photography shot over the Wind River Indian Reservation.

GZERO comes at a time when the world order that has united much of the globe since the end of World War II is fraying, and global summits like G-7 and G-20 no longer have the influence they once did.
