A NOTE FROM SYLVIA
Welcome to our first member magazine of the new year. As we turn the corner on 2020, we are all hoping that 2021 will mean healthier days, significant progress to eliminate COVID-19’s impact in our communities and across the globe, and perhaps even socializing in person with our family and friends. This month we will feature Minnesota Experience programs from all six public television stations that tell a Moving Lives Minnesota story, and Almanac at the Capitol is back beginning January 6th. Part of PBS Masterpiece , the re-make of period veterinary drama All Creatures Great and Small returns January 10th.
Throughout this issue, we’re highlighting Racism Unveiled , our newest initiative. Racism Unveiled is a storytelling project that aims to call out racism and highlight solutions from our communities to end systemic racism. This multiplatform project focuses on complex societal issues and inequities that affect the daily lives of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color in Minnesota. Over the next two years, TPT will deliver multimedia content and engage our community on topics such as Health and Wellness, Internalized Racism, Justice and Law, and Housing and Employment. We began this project last February with lead support from the Otto Bremer Trust, and subsequently also received generous support from HealthPartners. The initiative took on even greater urgency when the pandemic struck in March and then, in May, George Floyd was killed in Minneapolis while in police custody. Our creative team directed their energy toward this project by collaborating with community leaders and partner organizations, to listen, be informed, and ensure that we meaningfully address subjects that matter to our communities.

We hope you will join us. Best regards, Sylvia Strobel, President and CEO, Twin Cities PBS
