Artists Focus on Change in Post-Earthquake Japan

Anchor Lisa Mullins speaks with The World’s Marco Werman about a group of young artists he met in Japan, in May, who are trying to provoke social change. They take their inspiration from the American TV show, Jackass. Werman chronicles their story on PBS FRONTLINE July 26, 2011.

Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?

At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.

Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
