When Amythyst’s parents gifted her a guitar as a child, she spent hours playing, copying training cd’s and popular artists she heard on the radio, but it wasn’t until she took a bluegrass guitar class that she discovered the African contributions to the music of Appalachia. As a teen, Amythyst remembers feeling alone as her father battled drug addiction and her mother eventually committed suicide. Turning to alcohol nearly cost her a shot at a musical career, but through her father’s intervention, Amythyst began to re-channel her sorrow into song. She earned a 2020 Grammy nomination for Best American Roots Song for her tune “Black Myself," and today, Amythyst is continuing her journey of self-discovery through music.The Express Way with Dulé HillMulti-talented actor and performer Dulé Hill (“The Wonder Years,” “The West Wing”) and director Danny Lee (“Who Is Stan Smith?”) take audiences on an emotional and celebratory road trip across the nation to explore the transformative power of the arts.

Their founder is Cynthia Yee, aka “Empress Yee.” At the age of 10, Cynthia’s mother snuck her into a Chinese nightclub, and she’s been hooked ever since. Cynthia reminisces with Dulé about her time as a dancer in the Golden Age of Chinatown's nightlife from the 1930s-60s, where clubs were frequented by Frank Sinatra and Humphrey Bogart. Through the troupe, Cynthia keeps the legacy of Chinese nightclubs alive and works to revitalize Chinatown today. Dulé learns the COVID-19 pandemic threatened the economic stability and physical safety of Chinatown’s residents. Stores were shuttered seemingly overnight as gross receipts saw an estimated 40-70% decrease. Along with business closures, the pandemic brought an alarming surge in violence against Asian Americans, often inflamed by hateful rhetoric that placed blame on China and Chinese Americans for the pandemic. The deaths of Michelle Go and Vicha Ratanapakdee galvanized the residents of Chinatown to take action and stand up to Asian hate.Some of those young residents include rapper Son of Paper, and activist Tâm Ngô, who came together through the organization “Dear Community,” which was founded during the pandemic to fortify Chinese American culture in Chinatown through arts and community programming. Their activism has helped ensure elders in the community are physically safe, and that local businesses are protected financially. They work with older shop owners to host events that bring young people back to clubs and restaurants, reviving the historical and cultural vitality of San Francisco’s Chinatown.The Express Way with Dulé HillMulti-talented actor and performer Dulé Hill (“The Wonder Years,” “The West Wing”) and director Danny Lee (“Who Is Stan Smith?”) take audiences on an emotional and celebratory road trip across the nation to explore the transformative power of the arts.

The History of Tap Dance | The Express Way with Dulé Hill PBS 2024-04-25 | Official website: to.pbs.org/3TwQDsm | #ExpressWayPBSDulé Hill has been tap dancing since the age of three, and launched his career shortly after when he was cast in the national tour of the Broadway show, The Tap Dance Kid. Dulé explores his love of tap, and the history of this American dance form.Tap historian Chester Whitmore explains, “Tap is an American form of dance, but the rhythms come from the West African djembe drum.” Djembe dance and drumming traces its roots back to the 12th century Mandinka people and was later brought to America by enslaved West Africans. But when early slaveholders banned the traditional drums, enslaved people found other ways to preserve their rhythms, using rocks, sticks, bottles and their feet.While enslaved Africans defiantly held onto and preserved their drum patterns and syncopated rhythms, European immigrants also arrived in the American colonies, bringing Irish, Scottish and Dutch folk dancing with them. This blend gave birth to the American tap dance. By the 1840s, tap evolved from a tool of communication to a controversial American comedy act known as minstrelsy, in which mostly white performers would paint their skin black to imitate African-American dancers. Since then, tap has seen over a century's worth of transformations, each bringing its own unique style, like that of Bill Bojangles Robinson and his famous stair dance in the vaudeville era, the trailblazing Nicholas Brothers who fused jazz, ballet and acrobatics during the Harlem Renaissance, and silver screen giants like Gene Kelly, who brought tap to forties and fifties-era Hollywood.This program is made possible by viewers like you.

There's a race against time to help damaged reefs recover. Sanjayan visits Laamu Atoll in the Maldives to take part in a world-first collaboration that could be the key to restoring reefs.Professor Peter Harrison from Southern Cross University in Australia devised a fertility treatment to help corals reproduce more successfully, known as “coral IVF.” Corals spawn on just a few nights a year, releasing billions of eggs and sperm into the ocean. The resulting larvae settle on a reef and grow to become baby coral. In the wild, spawn is at the mercy of currents and predators - only one in a million may survive to adulthood. Peter’s technique involves collecting spawn and maximizing fertilization, then allowing the larvae to develop in the safety of a net before releasing them onto areas of the reef that need restoration, greatly increasing their chance of survival.Now, Peter is working with a scientist who could enhance this process. Professor Steve Simpson from Bristol University in the UK discovered that coral larvae move towards the sound of a healthy reef – and it’s fish vocalizations in particular that trigger them to sink to the bottom, settle and grow. The scientists’ audacious plan is to combine Peter’s fertility treatment to create thousands of baby coral with Steve Simpson’s fish recordings to lure them to set up home on a damaged reef. This method has never been tried before but if it works it could be a global game changer for reef restoration. Sanjayan also investigates coral conservation closer to home. Florida has the third largest barrier reef in the world but it has lost 98% of its coral.
