"The Reunion," an ABC News documentary, examines the lasting effects of school integration during the civil rights struggle in the 1960s by doing something that has never been done before - gathering together the first wave of students who went through it themselves in Shaker Heights, Ohio. This group was at the center of the storm when their parents, at the height of the civil rights movement, carried out a bold and controversial social experiment in one of America's wealthiest suburbs. These 1960 kindergarten classmates reunite to see where the years and education have taken them from their then new frontier - the American suburbs.When sold by Amazon.com, this product will be manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.

One of the first things that rookie cops all over the country are told is that there's no such thing as black or white on the police force. There's only blue, or whatever color uniform that particular force wears. Cops have to be able to trust one another, believe that their partners will back them up in a tough spot regardless of race. But what it sometimes means is that black cops are supposed to turn the other way when white cops are roughing up a black suspect. You don't hear very often of white cops looking the other way while black cops are roughing up white suspects. Every once in a while a cop will stand up and say no, right is right and wrong is wrong and just because it's a policeman engaging in wrong behavior, that's no reason to look the other way. That is not, as you can imagine, an easy thing to do. It can make you a pariah in your own profession. ABC News tells the story of Delacey Davis.

As medications play and ever-increasing role in modern health care, the importance of FDA approval to consumers, it would seem, has never been greater. For many, the phrase "FDA approved" signifies that drug or product is completely safe and without risk. But just how much does the average American know about the FDA approval process and what it can--and--cannot do? How good is the FDA's system for identifying drugs that don't work or cause harm? And what happens when a harmful product makes its way into the consumer's hands? FRONTLINE investigates the FDA and drug safety, and questions whether the current system is adequate for protecting the public.
