Do you remember your first carousel ride? Wendy Kirbey does and when her hometown of Albany, Oregon needed an economic boost she had an idea - build a carousel, from scratch, using old-world craftsmanship. See how this idea transforms the community when a group of dedicated volunteers come together to design, hand carve, and paint all of the animals needed to complete what many believe will be one of the most beautiful carousels ever created.
A MORE OR LESS PERFECT UNION, A PERSONAL EXPLORATION BY JUDGE DOUGLAS GINSBURG
Produced by Free to Choose Media
A MORE OR LESS PERFECT UNION, explores the most contentious issues in American history and today through the lens of the U.S. Constitution. The groundbreaking, three-part public television series tells the story of how the Framers put freedom in writing; how amendment after amendment finally spread freedom to all of “we the people”; and how we still struggle today to preserve the freedoms guaranteed in the Constitution. Hosted by Judge Douglas H. Ginsburg, a constitutional expert with 30 years of experience on the Federal Court of Appeals in Washington, DC. A MORE OR LESS PERFECT UNION features perspectives and interviews from constitutional experts of all stripes examining the key issues of liberty: freedom of religion and press, slavery, civil rights, the Second Amendment, separation of powers and more.

For almost 40 years, partners Marianne Edain and Steve Erickson have worked continually to retain the rural character and ecological diversity of Whidbey Island in Puget Sound, north of Seattle.
Through their organization Whidbey Environmental Action Network (WEAN), Edain and Erickson have monitored county applications for development and logging; challenged projects that violate state environmental law and led the way in science-based environmental public policymaking. In partnership with citizens and communities up and down Whidbey Island, they have helped keep trees standing and protected sensitive island ecosystems.
The effects of WEAN's work have extended statewide, as the legal precedents of their campaigns have been applied in other regions of Washington.
