The most important Batman tales are not in comic books, TV shows, or Hollywood movies. They are within the people for whom the Dark Knight has become a symbol. Not a symbol of fear - as he is for evil doers - but a symbol of hope.
Throughout many decades, the Caped Crusader has motivated people around the globe to overcome devastating obstacles, and to encourage young people to be a vital contributor to their community. His legacy has also been a vehicle for connecting us to each other and stirring the hero within.
The documentary, Legends Of The Knight is an inspirational film that shares the stories that Batman has uncovered within all of us, and the power heroic storytelling has to transform the world.

PBS Frontline | Endgame: AIDS in Black America
A PBS FRONTLINE special presentation, ENDGAME: AIDS in Black America, is a groundbreaking two-hour exploration of one of the country's most urgent, preventable health crises.
Airing July 10th, the film traces the history of the epidemic through the experiences of extraordinary individuals who tell their stories: people like Nel, a 63-year-old grandmother who married a deacon in her church and later found an HIV diagnosis tucked into his Bible; Tom and Keith, survivors who were children born with the virus in the early 1990s; and Jovanté, a high school football player who didn't realize what HIV meant until it was too late.
From Magic Johnson to civil rights pioneer Julian Bond, from pastors to health workers, people on the front lines tell moving stories of the battle to contain the spread of the virus, and the opportunity to finally turn the tide of the epidemic. Here's the trailer -

The Yogi Berra Of ALS
Difficult news can sometimes make us feel like our lives are over.
Diagnosed with ALS and given a short time to live, Ed Dobson reminds us that life isn't over yet and that we don't have to feel overwhelmed by the struggles we're facing today. Ed shows us that we don't know the future, and that things may turn out quite differently from what we expect.
