First Chilean miner is brought up to the surface

Posted by Pete Berg on Wednesday, October 13th, 2010 at 8:21 am

SInce last night, every hour, another Chilean Miner is being rescued from over 2000 feet underground — an inspirational feat of human persistence and ingenuity. Currently there are 15 miners of 33 who have been rescued. Here’s a video of Rescate de Florencio Ávalos, the first rescued miner, emerging on the surface last night. You can watch the rest of the rescue live in several places around the Internet, and I’d recommend that you check it out.

Good Fortune

Posted by Pete Berg on Thursday, July 15th, 2010 at 3:46 pm

Good Fortune, a documentary by my good friend Jeremy Levine and his partner, Landon Van Soest, both alumni of my alma mater Ithaca College, aired last night on POV on PBS. It is a sad and brilliant piece, and from today until October 12, 2010, the film is available to watch for free, in full, on the PBS website. I truly encourage you to watch Jeremy and Landon’s film. Below is the synopsis. The trailer follows.

Good Fortune is a provocative exploration of how massive international efforts to alleviate poverty in Africa may be undermining the very communities they aim to benefit. In Kenyas rural countryside, Jackson’s farm is being flooded by an American investor who hopes to alleviate poverty by creating a multimillion-dollar rice farm. Across the country in Nairobi, Silva’s home and business in Africa’s largest shantytown are being demolished as part of a U.N. slum-upgrading project. The gripping stories of two Kenyans battling to save their homes from large-scale development present a unique opportunity see foreign aid through eyes of the people it is intended to help.
