Interesting PBS show

Here is a link to a PBS show about China. It is available to watch on the internet for free, is 4 parts, and runs about 90 minutes.
FRONTLINE-Tankman
This show has nothing to do with adoption but talks about the political environment and the challenge that China faces trying to balance capitalism and communism. It focus on the famous image of the man standing in front of the tank at Tiananmen Square, but asks much deeper questions. I found it to be a very interesting show as I am trying to learn more about the political landscape to teach our daughter in later years.
Another interesting show was on Discovery Times recently. It was also a 4 part series called “China Rises”. It focuses on the political landscape but also how ordinary people are dealing with the differences between the old culture and the emergence of capitilism. It really is interesting the things and the fine line being walked in China right now.
