Documentaries!

I thought we could use a thread about documentaries!

I just finished watching:

Frontline:American Insurrection

Frontline: China's COVID Secrets

Frontline: Trump's American Carnage

Foogy, please merge this thread with What Are You Watching if you feel it's best.

Nah. This is a separate topic, really.

I'm not a huge fan of multiple threads, but yeah, this one is super cool to have a completely separate thread. I love documentaries. Thanks to everyone who has posted. I have some additional thingies on my list now!

Chilidog mentioned something about wild turkeys being smart in the Birding thread and it reminded me of this wonderful Documentary "My Life as a Turkey".

Naturalist Jim Hutto was given 2 dozen wild turkey eggs which were found by a neighbor of his. He raised to adulthood and a little beyond. This is one of the most interesting documentaries I've seen in the past few years, I just loved it. Here is a link. Enjoy!

‘Decades ahead of his time’: history catches up with visionary Jimmy Carter
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/202 ... -biography
Carterland, a just released documentary, offers a particularly sharp focus on Carter’s extensive work on conservation, climate and justice.

“Here’s what people get wrong about Carter,” Will Pattiz, one of the film’s directors tells me. “He was not in over his head or ineffective, weak or indecisive – he was a visionary leader, decades ahead of his time trying to pull the country toward renewable energy, climate solutions, social justice for women and minorities, equitable treatment for all nations of the world. He faced nearly impossible economic problems – and at the end of the day came so very close to changing the trajectory of this nation.”
