News > Ken Burns WWII Mini to Add Latino Content

April 11, 2007

After receiving numerous complaints and even protests from Latino groups, PBS has decided to amend Ken Burns' upcoming WWII documentary mini-series "The War" with additional Latino voices.  Originally, the Latino story was essentially untold in spite of a substantial contribution to the war effort.  Burns has hired a Latino producer to help him with the additional content, as the prolific documentarian apparently wouldn't know where to start.
