NEXT DOOR NEIGHBORS: HABLAMOS ESPANOL
As part of its four-part series, Next Door Neighbors, Nashville
Public Television (NPT) is offering viewers a chance to see Nashville through
the eyes of its immigrant communities. In
the last few decades, a shifting economy has meant mid-sized cities like
Nashville have seen unprecedented growth in their foreign-born populations. In
Nashville, the Latin American, or Hispanic, community has grown by an estimated
800% in the last 15 years.
Nashville Public Television features this vibrant
community with NEXT DOOR NEIGHBORS: HABLAMOS ESPAÑOL. The documentary can be seen online beginning
May 29, 2009 at http://wnpt.org/productions/nextdoorneighbors Earlier
documentaries on the Kurdish and Somali communities of Nashville can also be
accessed from this site.
