Bartlett High graduate on KAKM tonight (Mon, 2/4)

Mon, February 4, 2008


Tonight on KAKM Channel 7 at 9:00 p.m. (repeating Wed, 2/6 at 3:00 a.m.), you can tune in to see the unique documentary Prince Among Slaves

…the story of Abdul Rahman, an African prince who, at the age of 26 in 1788, was captured and sold into slavery, spending the next 40 years of his life working on a Mississippi plantation before regaining his freedom.

Aside from being a fascinating look at slavery’s history through the experience of a high-born man, it’s also a production with a special link to Anchorage, Alaska. One of the actors and narrators in tonight’s program — Isaiah Johnson — is a Bartlett High School graduate! We received word of this honor just this afternoon from an understandably proud father:

My son, Isaiah Johnson, a 2000 year graduate of Bartlett High School and a New York Broadway actor, will be featured tonight, February 4, 2008, on PBS (Channel 7) at 9:00 pm. … Isaiah is cast as one of the slaves and co-narrator. The historical aspect is a very worthwhile learning opportunity for all! Thank you for sharing this announcement with others of interest. Sincerely, Will

Thanks for dropping the hint, Mr. Johnson, and congratulations to you and your son for bringing this story home!
