Support your local PBS station here: https://www.pbs.org/donate​/ “Two American Families: 1991-2024� documents the saga of two families, the Stanleys and the Neumanns, who have spent the past 34 years battling to keep from sliding into poverty, and who refuse to give up despite upheaval in the U.S. economy. When the team first began documenting the families’ lives in 1991, the Neumanns and Stanleys were both struggling to adapt to a new, global economy and the trend towards part-time, lower-wage work. With profound intimacy, the documentary follows the stories of the Stanleys and the Neumanns across six presidential administrations and offers a powerful window into how they and their now-grown children have fared while trying to stay afloat in an economy that has presented challenge after challenge for them. “There are so many people struggling the same way with the cost of everything and not getting enough on your paycheck to cover your monthly expenses,� said Terry Neumann, who was a mom of young kids when the documentary’s producers began filming with her and is now in her early 60s. “It’s like we haven’t come very far.� “I won’t give up,� said Jackie Stanley, who is working as a real estate agent while entering her 70s. “Two American Families: 1991-2024� is a FRONTLINE production with Okapi Productions LLC and Public Affairs Television, Inc. in association with Left/Right Docs.

Jane Goodall's very first experience as a scientist
Since 1960, Jane Goodall's name has been synonymous with the study of wild chimpanzees and later with conservation and advocacy. And in more recent years, for a campaign to spread a message about the importance of hope. Throughout her 89 years, the experiences that Jane has had and the story she tells about those experiences has been central to the person we think of when we hear the name Jane. Her journey of scientific curiosity and understanding began at an early age.

In this interview of Dispatches from The Well, Kmele Foster sat down with Jane Goodall to discuss the significance that stories hold in her life. She shares one of her favorite stories, one of herself at age four, when she watched a chicken walk into a henhouse in preparation to lay an egg. Jane followed the hen into the henhouse and waited hours for the egg to arrive, much to her family's chagrin, who assumed her missing. "And I love that story," Jane explains, "because isn't it the making of a little scientist? Asking questions, not getting the right answer, deciding to find out for yourself, making a mistake, not giving up, and learning patience."
