A Capitol Fourth 2020 SAT Jul 4 | 8pThis annual musical extravaganza puts viewers front and center for America’s Independence Day celebration. This year’s program will include new and relevant content for these unprecedented times, with top celebrities and the stirring patriotic performances you look forward to every year. Actor and producer John Stamos is back as host, along with the National Symphony Orchestra under the direction of conductor Jack Everly.
History with David Rubenstein series premiere SUN Jul 5 | 6:30pThis series presents interviews between David Rubenstein and some of the nation’s most renowned scholars and public figures, including Ron Chernow, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Walter Isaacson and Annette Gordon-Reed. In these in-depth conversations, Rubenstein illuminates the work of these influential historians and thinkers as well as the subjects of their scholarship.
The Vote MON-TUE | Jul 6-7 | 9pTo mark the 100th anniversary this summer of the passage of the 19th Amendment, this two-part series tells the story of the fiery campaign by women for the right to vote, a transformative movement that resulted in the largest expansion of voting rights in U.S. history. The battle for the vote also upended previously accepted ideas about the role of women in American society and challenged the definitions of citizenship and democracy.
China: Power and Prosperity: PBS NewsHour Presents WED Jul 8 | 10pChina is grappling with the deadly COVID-19 outbreak as it faces a new era of confrontation with the United States. PBS NewsHour examines the expansion of the emerging superpower’s reach through trade, technology and the most powerful leader in a half-century. With reporting from eight countries and more than 70 on-camera interviews, this program explores the communist country’s future and its relationship with the United States.

Viking Warrior Queen TUE Jul 7 | 8pIn 1878, archaeologists excavated the remains of Birka, one of the oldest and richest Viking settlements in Sweden, where they discovered the magnificent burial chamber of an honored warrior from the 10th century. In 2017, a team of Swedish archaeologists astonished everyone by proving, through a DNA study, that the great warrior was a woman. But who was she?

Unladylike FRI Jul 10 | 10pNarrated by award-winning actor Julianna Margulies, this film focuses on the ways women shaped American politics over 100 years ago. It features the rich biographies of little-known women trailblazers, including the first women to hold elected office, women who fought to ensure that all citizens are treated equally, and one woman who took on the U.S. government to fight for the sovereignty of her island nation. Their stories are brought to life through rare archival imagery and fascinating interviews with historians and descendants who reflect upon the influence of these pioneers.artwork by amelie chabannes, copyright unladylike productions llc.

The Iraq War
TUE Jul 14 | 9pThe Iraq War is the defining conflict of our age. The politicians and decision-makers involved have already had their say. In this two-hour special, director James Bluemel tells the story of the Iraq War through civilians, journalists and soldiers – ordinary people from both sides of the conflict who lived through the 2003 invasion and the 17 years of chaos that followed.

Porgy and Bess TUE Jul 17 | 9pOne of America’s favorite operas returns to the Met for the first time in nearly 30 years. James Robinson’s production transports audiences to Catfish Row on the Charleston waterfront, vibrant with the music, dancing, emotion and heartbreak of its characters.

Charles & Di: The Truth Behind Their Wedding MON Jul 27 | 10pThe 1981 wedding of Lady Diana Spencer and HRH Prince Charles was the fairytale wedding of the century; it lifted the spirits of Britain during a turbulent time, and was watched by three-quarters of a billion people around the world. But all wasn’t as perfect as it seemed.
This documentary reveals the inside story of the seven days running up to the wedding, comparing what the jubilant public saw from the outside to the doubt, fear and heartbreak suffered privately by two individuals propelled by a fate they couldn’t control.
