Living with Cancer

A cancer diagnosis changes our lives forever. But with science, fortitude, and love, people can - and do - survive. Despite losing her hair to chemo, Leslie finds beauty in her Blackness; Daniel and his partner use humor to cope with caregiving; and Mel fights the odds to overcome leukemia to become a runner. Three storytellers, three interpretations of LIVING WITH CANCER, hosted by Wes Hazard.

STORIES FROM THE STAGE | TONIGHT @ 9:30/8:30c

Established by Congress, the 14th Amendment promised citizenship in exchange for enlistment, prompting many African American men. They were denied due to Jim Crow laws but still served. The film examines the profound and often-contradictory roles played by Buffalo Soldiers in U.S. history, and how they fought on two sets of front lines: military conflicts abroad and civil rights struggles at home.
