Next week, we’ll look back at a very different time in American politics, examine historic change in the governance of one American city and more. Take a look at what’s coming up!

This documentary chronicles the race between incumbent Republican President Gerald Ford and Democratic candidate and Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter, who stepped onto the national stage touting his outsider status and promising, “I'll never lie to you.” Using a combination of archival clips and interviews, the film examines this close race and discusses how the 1976 Presidential election was the last time in which the country wasn't polarized in the manner it is today.

This film examines a racially complicated American city as it confronts both its past and future. Boston’s acting mayor, a black woman once bussed as a child to hostile neighborhoods, breaks 200 years of white male mayors and ushers in the historic 2021 mayoral race.

Young boys have been worried about what it means to become a man since the beginning of time. And for years, they have tried to prove they are men by imitating the so-called “manly” behaviors modeled by earlier generations.
