About one in ten of our citizens served. And these days, many of those folks are seriously struggling to transition from life as a soldier to life as a civilian. Fortunately, our state is also home to some unique and innovative programs—involving everything from our courts to fly fishing and extreme sports—that are changing and even saving the lives of veterans and their families. “Veterans Coming Home: Finding What Works” examines some of those programs that are helping post 9-11 veterans here in Montana. It’s part of a multi-media effort, funded by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, to increase understanding between our military and civilians and to help ease the transition for vets returning home.

Safe Enough? Seatbelts in School Buses Fifty years after the Federal Government mandated seatbelts in all passenger cars, seatbelts are still not required on school buses.

Why? “Safe Enough?” looks for answers in public records, interviews and crash investigations. In the end, “Safe Enough?” reveals decades of well-meaning opposition and complacency, and the tragic consequences.

TH E RU N D OW N WITH JAC K I E C O F FI N : M E D I CA I D I N M O NTA N A • Expand or Expire? The 2019 Montana Legislature has adjourned, but what’s the outcome for the health insurance of 1 in 10 Montanans? In two years, Medicaid Expansion has provided federally-funded healthcare coverage to nearly 100,000 Montanans who all fall under the 138% poverty line. It has also created 2,000 jobs and injected millions of dollars into the Montana economy. Whether to continue this program has Democrats and Republicans split on ideology.

Were legislators able to work out something to garner enough votes from both sides? Or will the sun set on Medicaid this summer?

• Medicaid, Mental Health and Montana’s Health Emergency The fate of Medicaid Expansion in Montana is set, for now, following the 2019 Legislative Session. But the future of federally-funded healthcare coverage is being called into question on a national level. With presidential budget cuts and pending court cases challenging the Affordable Care Act, federally-funded healthcare coverage could shrink or disappear for some Americans, including thousands in Montana. Meanwhile, Montana faces other growing health emergencies including opioid addiction and mental health treatment. After cuts to services, Montana finds itself in a mental health crisis intersecting at times with addiction to opioids and other substances.

Expand or Expire?

6:58pm Thursday, May 2 Also 5/3 7:27pm, 5/4 5:18pm, 5/5 9:23am, 5/6 12:55am

The 2019 Montana Legislature has ad-

journed, but what’s the outcome for Medicaid? In two years, Medicaid Expansion has provided federally-funded healthcare coverage to nearly 100,000 Montanans who all fall under the 138% poverty line. It has also created 2,000 jobs and injected millions of dollars into the Montana economy. Whether to continue this program has Democrats and Republicans split on ideology. Proponents say expansion helps Montanans live healthier lives.

Opponents site the growing national debt as reasons to cut back spending on programs and question why recipients aren’t paying for their own plans.

 Medicaid, Mental Health and

Montana’s Health Emergencies

7pm Thursday, May 23 Also 5/26 10am, 5/27 2:30am

The future of federally-funded healthcare

coverage is being called into question on a national level. With presidential budget cuts and pending court cases challenging the Affordable Care Act, federally-funded healthcare coverage could shrink or disappear for some Americans, including thousands in Montana.

Meanwhile, Montana faces other growing health emergencies including opioid addiction and mental health treatment.

The first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic, Amelia Earhart was one of America’s earliest celebrities. After only a few years as a pilot, she became the best-known female flier in America not only for her daring and determination, but also for her striking looks and outspoken personality. Amelia even had an uncanny resemblance to Charles Lindbergh earning her the nickname “Lady Lindy.” Three weeks short of her 40th birthday, Earhart disappeared over the Pacific Ocean, and her story became legend.

Norman Mineta and His Legacy: An American Story  Airs 7pm Tuesday, May 21 Also 5/23 1am, 4am

Directed by Dianne Fukami and co-produced

by Fukami and Debra Nakatomi, the film includes interviews with the two presidents under whom he served as a cabinet secretary: Democrat Bill Clinton and Republican George W. Bush. Also interviewed is retired Republican Senator Alan Simpson, who formed a lifelong friendship with Mineta when they met as 11-year-olds at Heart Mountain, Wyoming, the U.S. concentration camp where Mineta and his family were incarcerated during World War II. Norman Mineta is a man of many firsts: the first Asian American mayor of a major city (San Jose, California); the first Japanese American from the mainland to be elected to Congress; and the first Asian American to serve in a presidential cabinet. But beyond these groundbreaking achievements, Mineta personifies the dreams and aspirations of many Americans.

A U.S. citizen by birth, he was imprisoned by his own country for his Japanese ancestry, yet he steadfastly remained a patriot, leading a Congressional effort for an apology from the U.S. government and redress for Japanese Americans, 120,000 of whom were imprisoned during the war. That effort finally came to fruition when the Civil Liberties Act of 1988 was signed into law by President Ronald Reagan.

During his 21 years in Congress, Mineta worked to right other wrongs. Retired Representative Barney Frank of Massachusetts speaks in the film of the role Mineta played in endorsing same-sex marriage. A co-author of the 1991 Americans with Disabilities Act, Mineta pushed to make public facilities accessible.

The film features two acclaimed storytellers of war—journalist and author Sebastian Junger, author of The Perfect Storm and director of the Academy Award-nominated documentary Restrepo; and Vietnam War veteran Karl Marlantes, author of the best-selling Vietnam combat novel Matterhorn and What It Is Like to Go to War. Joining Junger and Marlantes are veterans from various American wars who bring first-hand accounts and an abiding commitment to telling the warrior’s story with sensitivity and candor.

Going to War captures the gritty mental and physical transformation of troops in training and follows them into the transformative experience of combat. By delving into the psychologically complex world of warfare and its aftermath, the film reveals the challenges service members face when they return home and rejoin civilian society, revisit their life goals and aspirations, and ultimately redefine themselves.

Going to War illuminates the deep human responses that transcend battles and cultures and are universal throughout history. “We like to think of war as an aberration—but there’s scarcely been a time or a culture when humankind has not been at war. It’s universal,” said Junger. “We try really hard to keep combat at a distance, but when we talk about war, we are talking about what it means to be human.”

Music Voyager is a travel and music series that explores and discovers the “people’s” story in a city, state, country or region — all wrapped in the beauty of the location and told by the people who live there. Pictured: New host Paulino Duran in Anacapri, Italy.

 Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9pm The travel-based music series Music Voyager explores thriving, exotic global music scenes and artistic creation to discover emerging talent.

Season nine, beginning April 21, features several creative hotbeds. Our new host, Paulino Duran, travels to Italy. He discovers Italy’s fascinating history and contemporary cultural scene, and meets the local creative community. Showcasing the immense beauty of the Amalfi coastline, from Positano to Capri, and then all throughout the south into the island of Sicily, Paulino investigates the art, history, cuisine and music, one neighborhood at a time.

Eva Kor gives peace sign outside the “Blood Lab” at Auschwitz-Birkenau.

Eva: A-7063  Airs 4pm Sunday, May 5 Also 5/1 noon; 5/28 3am WORLD

5/1 6pm, 10pm; 5/2 6am, noon; 5/6 2am

Eva: A-7063 recounts the incredible true story of an Auschwitz survivor’s journey to forgiveness and healing. At the age of 10, Eva Mozes Kor fought to stay alive inside the concentration camp where she and her twin sister Miriam endured cruel experiments devised by Nazi doctor Josef Mengele. After decades of torment and pain following her liberation, she decided to use her experiences as a teaching tool for other generations. Despite health issues, the 4-foot-9, 85-year-old circles the globe delivering her messages of healing and self-empowerment. She addresses current global atrocities, as well as two of the biggest problems facing today’s youth—bullying and discrimination. Narrated by actor Ed Asner, the film weaves Eva’s story together with footage in Poland, Germany, Israel, Romania, England and the United States, along with interviews from CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, whose grandparents died in the Holocaust; actor Elliott Gould; and former pro basketball star Ray Allen (a member of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Council).
