ABC Close-Up! Season 1 Full Episode Guide

Episode 10 - Adventures on the New Frontier
Episode 9 - The Children Were Watching
First Aired: March. 06,1961

Six-year-old Yolanda Gabrielle, escorted by her mother, becomes the target of the taunts of a crowd of shouting segregationists as she makes her way to school, one of the few white children to continue attending after four African-American students were admitted to her first-grade class. Tessie Prevost, also 6, receives the protection of U.S. Marshals to enter and leave the nearly empty school, as do the other three African-American children. The ugly crowd swarms the Gabrielle’s home after school, and Yolanda’s father comes home only to tell his wife that he’s been provoked by angry co-workers to quit his job.

Episode 5 - Yanki No!
First Aired: December. 07,1960

Tracing anti-U.S. sentiment as it builds in Latin America, Yanki No! juxtaposes the candid humanity of life in a Caracas slum with the actions of diplomats and political figures, including Cuba’s Fidel Castro addressing a rally of one million people.
