"Hey, Ken Burns, Why Shun Latinos?" - Juan Gonzalez on PBS WWII Documentary
A coalition of Latino organizations have reached an agreement with the filmmaker Ken Burns on a forthcoming World War II documentary that had been criticized for ignoring the role of Latino soldiers. The 14-hour film, “The War,” initially included no interviews with any Latino veterans even though over 500,000 Latinos served in the war. Democracy Now! co-host and New York Daily News columnist, Juan Gonzalez discusses the controversy.
