Mother Nature has converted what was once thousands of acres of row crops into a mosaic of natural habitats that is home to birds, fish, amphibians and reptiles. Seeds that were dormant for 80 years have sprung to life by just adding water. Life as it was for millennia has returned to Emiquon Preserve in Fulton County.

WTVP presents a cinematic ½ hour production of the beautiful journey of, Nature Returns to Emiquon on March 15th at 7 PM. Join us as we show how beauty has returned to this parcel of land along the Illinois River in Fulton County. What were once thousands of acres of row crops and cattle are now restored to natural habitats.

Before 1900, the land was a backwater environment of lakes, prairies, wetlands and forests. But the rich soils adjacent to the river attracted farmers in the 20th century. They erected levees to keep the river water out and pumps to remove water from the fields. The natural flow of the Illinois River was altered, causing issues with more frequent flooding, overflow that the backwaters once absorbed.

With help from The Nature Conservancy, Emiquon is experiencing a rebirth on the nearly seven-thousand acre plot of land. The habitat restoration has welcomed the return of birds, fish, amphibians and reptiles. Mother Nature, through its resurgence at Emiquon Preserve, has become a model of what may be replicated along other parts of the river and elsewhere.

WTVP is holding two premiere screenings:

Lewistown Screening:• Dickson Mounds State Museum, Theatre Room 10956 N. Dickson Mounds Road, Lewistown, IL• Monday, February 27, 2017 6:00 PM Doors Open—6:30 PM Event

Peoria Screening:• Peoria Riverfront Museum 200 SW Washington St, Peoria, IL • Thursday, March 2, 2017 6:30 PM Doors Open—7:00 PM Event

Two dramatic season finales on one night!Mercy Street—7 p.m.First on Mercy Street, allegiances blur and loyalties shift as the war pushes the drama beyond the hospital. Follow the growing chaos at Alexandria’s Mansion House, the precarious position of the Green family and the changing situation of the burgeoning black population

Victoria—8 p.m.Then watch as the drama follows Victoria from the time she becomes a queen in 1837 at the age of 18 through her relationship with Lord Melbourne, her first prime minister and intimate friend, and her courtship and marriage to Prince Albert. Famous for her candor and spirit, she was the first woman who seemed to have it all: a passionate marriage and the job of being queen of the world’s most important nation.

Catch up on both shows now on WTVP Passport.

Africa’s Great CivilizationsWednesday, March 1 at 8 p.m. and Thursday, March 2 at 9 p.m.AFRICA’S GREAT CIVILIZA-TIONS, is hosted, executive pro-duced and written by Henry Louis Gates, Jr. In this new documentary, Professor Gates travels the length and breadth of Africa to chronicle the continent’s history from a firm-ly African perspective. His jour-ney takes him from the city of Great Zimbabwe to the pyramids of the Kingdom of Kush in Sudan, from the spectacular rock-hewn churches of Lalibela in Ethiopia to the continent’s oldest university in Fez, from the Blombos Caves in South Africa to Ancient Mali, the empire of King Mansa Musa, still thought to be the wealthiest person ever to have lived.

In AFRICA’S GREAT CIVILI-ZATIONS, Gates chronicles a sweeping 200,000-year journey of discovery, showing the complexity, grandeur and diversity of many millennia of undiscussed and unknown details about Africa’s compelling and dramatic history. Gates presents — for the first time for a popular audience — a new vision not only of Africa’s pivotal place in world history, but also the world’s relation to Africa.

Africa’s contributions to the human community’s development of art and language, writing and religion, agriculture and government, the arts and sciences are commonly misunderstood, or even ignored. This landmark series presents a new and comprehensive narrative about Africa and the history of the extraordinary diverse peoples of its continent, from the Mediterranean Sea to the Cape of Good Hope, from the Red Sea and down the Nile River, and from the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic.

To Walk Invisible: The Brontë SistersOn MASTERPIECE—Sunday, March 26 at 8 p.m.Ever since they were revealed to the world as quaint country-women and notthe notorious Bell brothers of their pseudonyms, the Brontë sisters have fascinated legions of devoted readers. MASTERPIECE brings these remarkable literary geniuses to life with a beautifully filmed and acted two-hour drama.

Written and directed by Sally Wainwright (Happy Valley, Last Tango in Halifax), To Walk Invisible makes a perfect companion to MASTERPIECE’s past adap-tations of Brontë novels: The Tennant of Wildfell Hall (1997, Peabody Award), Wuthering Heights (1998 and 2009), and Jane Eyre (2007, three Primetime Emmys®).

Depicting the evolution of secluded, dutiful clergyman’s daughters into authors of the most controversial fiction of the 1840s, the drama stars Finn Atkins (Eden Lake) as Charlotte, who shocked society with her edgy epic, Jane Eyre; Chloe Pirrie (War and Peace) as Emily, author of the darkly gothic and disturbing Wuthering Heights; and Charlie Murphy (Happy Valley) as Anne, whose true-to-life love story The Tenant of Wildfell Hall was deemed “coarse and disgusting” by Victorian critics.

Also starring are Jonathan Pryce (Wolf Hall) as their distracted father, Reverend Patrick Brontë; and Adam Nagaitis (Houdini and Doyle) as the sisters’ only brother, Branwell, whose wild and dissipated life contributed to vivid characters in each of their novels.

To Walk Invisible was filmed in and around Haworth, the picturesque Yorkshire village where the Brontë sisters lived and which is now a mecca for Brontëphiles from all over the world. Scenes at their parsonage home were shot in an exact replica that recreates the feel of a lived-in mid-19th-century provincial dwelling, with the sisters congregating around the dining table to pen their stories and plot their editorial strategy.

Based largely on Charlotte’s voluminous letters, the film follows the Brontë sisters in the eventful three-year period that saw them rise from ordinary, unmarried women, taking care of the household and their widowed father, to the secret authors of the world’s most sensational literature.

Although he never suspected it, Branwell was the inspiration. A would-be poet and artist, he was a complete failure due to alcoholism and opium addiction. As Reverend Brontë slowly went blind, Branwell was on an even more precipitous downward slide, inciting the sisters to do something to keep the family out of the poor house.

She had a passion for PBS Kids and early education and was the guiding force behind WTVP’s statewide Young Writers and Illustrators Competition.The Stacey Tomczyk Fund has been established using the memorial donations made in Stacey’s name. With the blessing of Chet and Connie Tomczyk, we are pleased to preserve Stacey’s love for local programming and productions.

Public media makes a special effort to serve children, minorities, and low-income Americans. It reaches more than 98% of the U.S. population.

Our public media engages more than half of all Americans every month. 170 million Americans connect through over 350 public television stations, 1,100 public radio stations, hundreds of online resources, in-person events, and on-the-ground services.

Our public media costs less than a cup of coffee. Annually, the federal contribution to public media amounts to $1.35 per American.

Our public media system is one of the most effective public/private partnerships in America. For every dollar local stations receive from the federal government, they are able to raise six dollars from local sources to provide their listeners and viewers with the best programming and services.

WTVP is for everyone.

Public Media Fact Sheet• The federal investment in public media is roughly one one-hundredth of a

percent (0.01%) of the federal budget.

• The cost of public media per American each year is $1.35.

• Public broadcasting stations leverage every $1.00 of federal funding invest-ed to raise an additional $6.00 on their own.

• An annual national survey conducted over the last 13 years has consis-tently confirmed that PBS and its member stations are ranked first in trust among nationally known institutions and are considered an “excellent” use of tax dollars by the American public, second only to military defense.

• According to the 2011 national survey by the bipartisan polling firms of Hart Research and American Viewpoint, more than two-thirds of Amer-ican voters (69%) oppose proposals to eliminate government funding of public broadcasting.

Closed Captioning• Since its inception, the public television system has been instrumental in

working closely with people with disabilities to ensure full and fair access to educational programming and resources. Public television has been at the forefront in the development of captioning and technology.

Public TV• In a typical month, nearly 100 million people watch local PBS stations.

(Nielsen NPower, October 2014)

• Annually, 82% of all U.S. television households — and 182 million people — watch public television. Americans stream over 425 million videos on PBS web, mobile, and connected device platforms each month. (Nielsen NPower, September 2013-14)

• PBS averaged a 1.46 primetime household rating during the 2014-15 season, making it the #5 broadcast and cable network. (Nielsen NPower, September 2014-15)

• 71% of children ages 2-8 watch PBS Kids. PBS reaches more kids 2-5 years old, more moms with kids under 6, and more children from low income families than any other kids TV network.

• Public television educational programming and resources have been proven to help children from low-income families close the achievement gap with their middle income peers. (Linebarger, D.L. (2010) Between the Lions Mississippi literacy initiative: 2008–2009 review. A report prepared for Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Philadelphia, PA: Annenberg School for Communication, University of Pennsylvania)

• PBS is the #1 source of media content for preschool teachers and K-12 classrooms. (Grunwald Study, 2009 Media and Technology Use and Trends Among K-12 & Pre-K Teachers)
