    This is another in the series of programs hosted by Harry Smith that reveal the reasons behind all of the things we have come to expect as part of our celebrations of various holidays.

    Film didn’t fit our expectations although based on history. We felt a reaffirmation of our history and reminders that it is valuable to be educated and informed as this current changing world seems to bypass our Constitution so deeply fought for to give us our inalienable rights that seem to errode each and every day.
