KBTC’s Northwest Now dedicates show to Vietnam War and how it changed America

March 30, 2018 By Bates Technical College

It was a contested war that cost more than 58,000 American lives, and the countless more of those living in Southeast Asia, during the mid-1960’s to the mid-1970’s.

In April, filmmaker Ken Burns’ acclaimed Vietnam War documentary will air on KBTC Public Television, and along with that broadcast, Northwest Now will dedicate an entire show to the Vietnam War.

We’ll hear from a local writer who was once a war protester in Seattle during the conflict, as well as two historians from the University of Washington, so our viewers can get a historical take on how that war changed America forever.
