WITH GWEN IFILL

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21 @ 9:00PM

In the final debate before Election Day, Donald Trump refused to say whether he would accept the results on November 8 if he loses because the process is “rigged” against him.  “I’ll keep you in suspense,” the Republican nominee said, calling into question the legitimacy of American elections and rejecting decades of electoral tradition.  Hillary Clinton called his response “horrifying” and accused him of “talking down our democracy.”  He doubled down on Thursday saying he’ll accept the results “if I win.”

AMERICAN EXPERIENCE

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 27 @ 10:00PM

Meet Nikola Tesla, the genius engineer and tireless inventor whose technology revolutionized the electrical age of the 20th century. Although eclipsed in fame by Edison and Marconi, it was Tesla’s vision that paved the way for today’s wireless world.

Regarded by many as an eccentric genius, Nikola Tesla’s system of alternating current is the basis of the electrical grid that makes daily life possible in the 21st century. One hundred years ago, he paved the way toward robots, radio, radar, remote control, and the wireless transmission of messages and pictures. He dreamed of harnessing the wind and the sun to make free energy available for all.

HOOLIGAN SPARROW

MONDAY, OCTOBER 17 @ 11:00PM

Speaking truth to power is dangerous in some places, including modern-day China, where corrupt government officials deal very harshly with critics.

Chinese officials prove especially displeased when their critics include an activist lawyer, outraged parents, a fearless filmmaker and a sex workers’ rights activist with a wicked sense of humor. Hooligan Sparrow, Nanfu Wang’s feature debut, centers on a horrible crime that took place in 2013: A school principal and a member of the education bureaucracy abducted six female students 11 to 14 years of age, took them to a hotel and sexually assaulted them over a 24-hour period. When parents and their supporters demanded justice, the perpetrators insisted the girls were prostitutes. Then the powers-that-be and their hired thugs really started playing hardball.
