A GREAT STORY T

HE PURPOSE OF THE Muhammad Ali Center in Louisville is about more than exhibiting artifacts and photographs from the former heavyweight champion’s legendary career, says Laura Douglas, the center’s interim president and CEO. It’s about telling Ali’s inspiring life story. “We believe that by telling his story, in which he rose from humble beginnings in West Louisville to become one of the world’s bestknown figures, we are encouraging others to think about their own story as well, which might help them to figure out what they, too, have to offer the world,” Douglas said. “That’s why we say: ‘Do great things.’ Because great things are in each of us.” Ali’s story takes center stage this month when Muhammad Ali, a four-part documentary from acclaimed filmmakers Ken Burns, Sarah Burns and David McMahon, airs on KET. Douglas said it’s fitting the film will be presented on KET. “What the Ali Center does for Ali’s story, that’s what KET does for Kentucky’s story,” Douglas said. “KET tells you so much about what’s happening in the state. Whether talking about our history or telling the stories of everyday 2

Kentuckians, KET highlights the magic of this place. And that lifts our spirits and makes us feel connected.” Douglas, a retired lawyer who worked for LG&E and the Legal Aid Society and who served as Kentucky’s Secretary for the Public Protection and Regulation Cabinet in the late 1990s, said she can personally attest to the power of great storytelling in one’s life. Growing up in the Russell neighborhood of West Louisville, Douglas said her parents took a keen interest in the education of her and her eight siblings. “They had a sense that the world was changing, and they wanted their children to be capable of taking advantage of those changes,” Douglas said. “Education played a big part of it, surely, because that’s how you prepared your children to participate and play a prominent role in your community.” The family gathered to watch KET “as a matter of routine,” she said. And the stories they watched about Kentucky, she said, opened her eyes to the world around her.

“My brothers and sisters and I especially liked programs that looked at Kentucky’s nature and wildlife,” she said. “It was fascinating to see the range of animals, the topography and where they lived. We felt like explorers every time we watched. And it made us want to learn more.” Douglas said Muhammad Ali’s story, likewise, has served as a source of inspiration to her and what prompted her to serve on the Ali Center’s board of directors for 10 years. Ali’s career, she said, was complex with many different chapters — the child, the athlete, the protester and the world citizen — a subject fit for a Ken Burns documentary. “One of the remarkable things about seeing Ali’s story is realizing how much larger than life he actually was,” Douglas said. “He came from such humble beginnings, but he influenced people and still does because of his courage, because he stood up for what he believed and because he reached out to people who were different from him.”

KET tells you so much about what’s happening in the state. Whether talking about our history or telling the stories of everyday Kentuckians, KET highlights the magic of this place.

Our fall season kicks off in the most exciting way as we bring you the latest project from Ken Burns — Muhammad Ali. The series explores one of the bestknown figures of the 20th century. In the ring, Ali’s combination of speed, grace and power captivated millions of fans throughout the world. And out of the ring, his quick wit, charm and playful boasting created a global icon. Through it all he never forgot his Louisville roots. For more than 30 years, Ken Burns and his collaborators have produced and directed some of the most acclaimed historical documentaries ever made. And many, including The Shakers, Prohibition, Country Music and The Civil War have ties to the Commonwealth. Additionally, segments from his projects, such as The Roosevelts, The Dust Bowl, Lewis & Clark, and Thomas Jefferson, help bring history to life for students throughout Kentucky and the country in the highly utilized PBS LearningMedia. For KET Members, I encourage you to explore the impressive Ken Burns Collection, available to stream any time through KET Passport. As we present Muhammad Ali, we salute the commitment and talent of Ken Burns and the many other extraordinary documentarians sharing stories through public television. And we thank you for helping to make these exceptional projects possible. Thank you for watching and supporting KET. Sincerely,

SE P TE M B ER 2021


He was one of the best-known men of the 20th Century, a three-time heavyweight boxing champion who captivated millions of fans throughout the world with his mesmerizing combination of speed, grace and power in the ring, and his charm and bravado outside of it. At the height of his fame, he took American life — the racial prejudices, the religious biases, the role of celebrities, the role of sports in society — and refashioned it in his own image. Muhammad Ali, Louisville’s most famous son who went on to become one of the world’s most charismatic and controversial sports figures, is the subject of a new documentary from acclaimed filmmakers Ken Burns, Sarah Burns and David McMahon. The eight-hour film premieres Sunday, Sept. 19, and will be shown in four-parts over consecutive evenings. Beginning the night of its premiere, the documentary also may be streamed on KET.org and the PBS Video app. “Muhammad Ali was the very best at what he did,” said Ken Burns. “He was arguably America’s greatest athlete, and his unflinching insistence that he be unabashedly himself at all times made him a beacon for generations of people

around the world seeking to express their own humanity.” The film traces Ali’s career, from his early days in Louisville when, at age 12, he entered a boxing gym for the first time, to his rise through the amateur ranks to win gold at the 1960 Olympics, to his upset win over heavyweight champion Sonny Liston in 1964, to his conversion to Islam and refusal to go to war in Vietnam, stripping Ali of his title and banishing from the ring for the next three years. Upon his return, Ali may have lost a step, but he went on to headline some of the most celebrated boxing matches in history: his pair of bouts against Joe Frazier and the “Rumble in the Jungle,” his upset win over heavyweight champion George Foreman to regain his title, seven years later. Drawing from a trove of archival footage and photographs, as well as interviews with family, friends, journalists and other boxers, the film offers a sweeping portrait of an American icon and captures Ali in all his complexity.

This six-part series probes the seismic upheavals transforming how Americans make their livelihoods today and examines how colleges and vocational training sites are preparing the next generation of U.S. workers. The series chronicles the stories of six Americans, tracking how each adapts to the ever-changing work landscape, and seeks to answer the question of whether upward mobility and the good life is still attainable through hard work.

A drunken drive home from a wedding results in a fatal hit-and-run accident and lands two brothers in increasingly hot water as they attempt to hide the crime. Rather than leaving the body at the scene, the brothers carry it to a nearby house, perching it in an easy chair — and things steadily go downhill from there. The four-part series, created by Scottish author Neil Forsyth, was hailed by The Guardian as “a darkly delicious tale.”

LIVE CHANNELS KET KET2 KETKY KET PBS KIDS Through our 16-transmitter network, all four KET channels are available free over-the-air across Kentucky and into parts of seven surrounding states. Cable providers in Kentucky offer all four KET channels. Please check our guide at KET.org/tv-where-to-watch for channel numbers in your area. Satellite providers in most Kentucky areas offer our primary channel, and some communities offer additional channels. Please check our online guide. KET and KET PBS KIDS channels are on YouTube TV, an internet-based service with offerings similar to cable that is available on smart TVs and streaming devices, and on computers, tablets and phones. Similar services Amazon Fire TV and Sling TV offer all four KET channels via an optional antenna. Unfortunately, KET channels are not yet available on AT&T TV or Hulu+ Live TV. KET.org/live is available from any internet browser, offering KET and KET PBS KIDS, plus Kentucky Legislative and Supreme Court Coverage, and special live events.

KET.org – available anywhere with internet (broadband recommended)

The PBS Video App – available for iOS and Android mobile devices as well as home devices, including Samsung and Android Smart TVs, Apple TV, Roku and more.
