Professor Maggie Rivas-Rodriguez criticizes PBS film
Tagged: documentary, Film, latina, Maggie Rivas-Rodriguez, pbs, ProfessorPosted on: April 11th, 2007“When UT associate journalism professor Maggie Rivas-Rodriguez caught wind that Latinos would be omitted from an upcoming World War II documentary, she reverted to her days as a journalist and followed the lead.
In the months that followed, Rivas-Rodriguez was at the forefront of public pressure to get documentary filmmaker Ken Burns and the Public Broadcasting Service to revise the film before it airs in September.
PBS is expected to announce its decision today.”
