This June on Peralta TV we'll take you around the world to the Mediterranean and Afghanistan, and across our nation.

Congratulations to the hardworking journalists at The Peralta Citizen. Their efforts to keep our community informed from a student perspective have not gone unnoticed. The Journalism Association of Community Colleges (JACC) recognized The Citizen during their statewide conference on Saturday, March 20, 2021. Among their many recognitions, The Citizen staff took home two meritorious awards in the Enterprise News Story/Series category, two honorable mentions for Profile Feature Story and placed fourth in the Video Journalism category.

It's spring officially, and on Peralta TV we have a wide variety of programming for the month of April exploring the great outdoors, the environment, and where we call home.

When Laney College’s football was featured on the Netflix Series ‘Last Chance U’, it was a great opportunity to share with the world Coach John Beam's impressive program and the care the Laney coaches, faculty and staff have for students. It was the players that were the stars of the show: there were a number individual stories that couldn’t help but stand out.

This March on Peralta TV we have an embarrassment of riches: documentaries that will take you around the world, featuring incredible artists, singers, coaches, guardians of our natural world, and work underway to "complete the unfinished business of the 21st century - Gender Equality".

Tune in and be inspired.
