NAPT
Tonight at 10pm watch Power Paths on Independent Lens | PBS .
Power Paths is an exploration of energy through the eyes of Native
Americans as they reveal their quest to tap wind, solar, biomass and
other power sources for their communities and cities across the
country. If you are in the Lincoln area, you can watch it on the big
screen at the VisionMaker Film Festival on Nov 5.
It's time to cut our dependence on fossil fuel and pursue renewable energy. But how can it be done? Native American tribes turn to solar and wind sources to provide clean sustainable energy for cities across the West. Their traditional values toward conservation and the earth offer real solutions to America's energy crisis. (Trailer: 2:52)

Community Cinema
Throughout the month of September, Community Cinema presented 36 free screenings of D TOUR with local organ donor registries and support groups. Based on observations at our events and talking to our partner organizations afterward, we estimate that at least 50 people signed up to become organ donors with their local r...egistry (including one of our own regional event producers and two ITVS staff members) at D TOUR events. Up to 50 lives can be saved or made better by each donor, which means that about 2500 people could potentially benefit from connections made at D TOUR events in September. Be sure to watch D TOUR when it airs on Independent Lens | PBS on November 10 at 10PM (check local listings).Read More
