we would make homeport without incident but such was not the case outer scope is flying again but with only three riders
Woolley and Henry got left behind in the dump and now the ship is caught in a big storm my point that's what we're head
first hey storm right away all avoid
parish save myself I floated ashore draped across a broken Mouse the gold chain and medallions still around my neck I knew
it I knew the medallion was safe you knew what boy I sure hope cutting this fuel system will bring us down too fast
oh brother that's all we need I know we shouldn't have taken the ship up it'll be a miracle if we're not k*lled
[Music]
[Music]
where are we so hot and sticky no if I
didn't know better I'd say we were on a desert Oh all places to land on a desert
the dye me quick where is it maybe it fell outside when we crashed that's
right let's go see we've lost one of our
umbrellas what are we gonna do now we're lost on some desert the ship won't fly
and now we lost the diary
[Music] what a bad strong we had last night I
better go get some dry wood for the fire
[Music]
now what's this [Music] a weather vane no an umbrella
[Music]
a funny old book the Journal of William
Topor [Music] an event has occurred that I must write
down it happened on my third voyage I sure feel a lot better and knowing the
ship's okay now that we cleaned it up and checked it out yeah that was a good idea yeah but now there are two problems
we have to solve oh where are they finding the diary right and finding
Willie and Henry uh-uh I just thought of something else with that water we're in
the middle of a desert without any water okay then let's get going we have to find water and we have to find that
diary maybe we'll be lucky I sure hope we can find our way back to the ship
it's so easy to get lost in the desert Osun yeah I'll be able to find my way
back real easy I hope you're right Edgar anyway let's spread out a little but make sure that
we stay within shouting distance
hey Cynthia Eleanor come quick who are you what are
you doing here you're not lost - are you lost no why we crashed in a storm crashed
what do you mean crash we didn't crash too hard the desert sand kind of cushioned our fall desert what desert
hey those are our bra and the diary yeah I found me early this morning are they
yours they sure are Liv did you read any of it not all of it except for wanted to
listen hey I think I got about halfway through uh-oh then you know what we're looking
for maybe but if it's the almond alley whether you believe it or not I knew
about that before I read the diary what do you mean my grandmother one of the story she
sometimes tells me is about a gold medallion and the man found on the beach many years ago by my people your people
what people the shinny this is Shinnecock land and my father is a
Shaniqua we've lived on this beach for centuries you're an Indian that's what you call us I am a native of this land
oh but I don't see any Peter out here all I see is desert desert you mean you
really believe you lost on a desert well with all the sand around you haven't paid attention listen
the ocean
Anker you two were right we have been heading east all along
Long Island South Fork this Montauk Point bought from here not too far but
you don't need to go all the way up there to get a lead on the Medallia my grandmother should have some pretty good
information at least I think so gee that'd be great it can't hurt to have her tell us the
story again maybe they'll be a clue in it to help you which reminds me how did
you say you got here Oh IG you see I oh why not we could trust
her right but you've got to promise not to tell anyone okay would you believe a
spaceship you've got to be kidding no no we built it it really works this I've
got to see it's over there behind those dunes come on we'll show you sure let's
go [Music]
I'm Cynthia and this is Eleanor hi Wendy
and I'm Edgar pleased to meet you isn't
it beautiful I'll say free it notice the seagull who would have thought we were on a
desert epidemic adhesive I could sit here and watch the girls all day
have to go in school you don't like it huh well I have a
problem at my school what about it maybe we can help
no I don't think you'd understand try Sin City come on tell us about it
well it's just well this one teacher is that your ship let's go
next time Wendy's complaint
[Music]
the story of the Chinese railroad strengthened Sierra Nevada 1867 what's
happening
come here let me help you up [Music] all right where am I see I read Nevada
what year is it 1867 why'd you ask all
these questions how did you get into this basket what does it say the Chinese
workers on the railroad are calling the strike what's a strike we stopped work to get
equal pay you could work in hours and you could benefit hours in pay equal to
home the railroad pays the white workers more money they work fewer hours and
they get more benefits the Chinese workers think it is unfair and we want
to strike there's a meeting tonight to put the strike into effect are you going
to come I don't know it is difficult to
strike one sacrifice as many things when one strikes for example we won't get paid there's a
lot injuring both sides that can be dangerous help me bring the basket down
this job is dangerous enough without getting involved in strikes I believe you what do you use this
basket for we have to plan dynamite into the side of the mountains hanging in a
basket like this one the Chinese are the only ones who would do it and you shouldn't go on strike
there's a meeting tonight of our community leaders to discuss the strike you should at least go to the
strike meeting maybe you're right men are dying from overwork low wages
and no benefits we must strike for equal rights but if we strike we will have no
pay and no money to send to our families in China if conditions continue as they
are your families will never see you again if we strike we will all starve
here we cannot be any hungrier than we are now besides there are Asian businesses
in the town that can help us we've carved roads through bedrock work
through freezing cold winters and many of our friends have died in avalanches
the bosses know we have very little money and cannot last very long without
work but their deadline is greater than our need
men if we don't strike our bodies will top the entire length of this railroad
who's around here spying on us man we should follow him let's go if we stick
together and strike there'll be no one to build their railroad we must strike
for our families we must strike for our respect men we must strike we must
strike to stay alive right must strike
they're really gonna do it let me get this straight the Chinese workers are
going on strike they are really going on strike I am sick and tired of those
people you know you know what just means don't you if they're gonna strike I'm
gonna have to give in a little get them back to work otherwise I'll never make my deadline what's that hey hey
there was somebody listening oh we're gonna be in our world we must get the
information to the strikers if they know the boss is in trouble they can plan their next move we get out of this alive
the information we have will lead the strikers on to victory [Music]
[Applause] [Laughter]
then the railroads both psmith were agreed to your demands then although it
is a partial victory our working conditions will improve from now on [Applause]
after a united struggle the Chinese workers when half their demands from the railroad they got a raise in pay and
better apples although not a total victory the strike itself was one of the
first in the history of organized labor [Music]
[Music]
[Music] furgus I asparagus you've never even
tried it yeah but I know I don't like it well that's just prejudice the
clubhouses all finished mom we even have a sign that says no boys allowed don't
you think that's being prejudiced I don't want to go it'll be boring no it
won't it's an opera for kids all operas are boring oh don't be so prejudiced
what's prejudice prejudice comes from two words three and Judge pre means
before and judge means to make up your mind sometimes it's a necessary part of
life like judging when they're branch will hold you or not right prejudice
means making up your mind before knowing like deciding you hate asparagus even if
you have never tried it you know people who are not prejudiced have a better
chance to make new friends and discover new experiences hey what are they doing

thinking yeah just a second
[Music] hey I want to use our Clubhouse for your movie I don't know you want to make a
movie with them I guess anyone can overcome prejudice if they really want
to it's a choice you can look at people and see that they're different shades of
color or have a different way of talking or live in a different neighborhood or
you can choose to see past the differences [Music]
you can look for the real person inside all of us maybe you'll see that people
aren't really so different after all I like to see some real people

storm and found themselves on the beach there they met Wendy who thinks she can help them find the medallion thanks for
helping us with the ship Wendy that's okay it was fun does it really fly sure does that's how
we got here we don't have any transportation problems so wish could solve my problems at school we'll have
you tried talking to your teacher about it look Cynthia why should I it wouldn't make any difference come on let's go see
my grandmother you sure it'll be okay to visit her I mean she won't mind will she
I'm sure Edgar should be glad to tell us the story now that I read part of the
diary I really want to hear it again [Music]
you know Wendy a couple of years ago I had the same problem with the teacher I had the same thing well it was similar
he went much too fast for me really Spanish is really my first language so I'll be translating what he said from
English to Spanish and back again before I could answer you know a lot of extra steps I can see where that can be a
problem yeah it sure was and I wasn't the only one either and we were all
afraid to say anything so the teacher didn't know are you the only Native American in your class no are they as
upset as you are about the history lessons we're probably but they haven't said anything watch Ellen off that's
poison ivy [Music] have you talked to your teacher about it
Wendy that's what I did and it helped what's he gonna do rewrite all their history books let's
face it it's not just my teacher it's the whole setup you may be right but
you've got to start somewhere and you might as well start with your teacher right listen I wasn't too sure we could
build a spaceship but we just started and one piece at a time little by little and with the five of us
working together we did it and it worked five of you where are the others
my little brother Henry and our friend Willie got left behind when we took off
we think they're using the map that goes with the diary to try to link up with us
at least I sure hope so [Music]
how you doing Henry okay I guess a little tired
yeah I know what you mean we missed a while yeah sure how about under one of
those apple trees come on let me have one of them apples we'll look who stole
the stuff in the first place me I did they were too chicken to climb the tree well whose idea was it huh nein
my idea good idea in your life well I'll tell you one thing the worst idea I ever
had was hooking up with you in the first place
[Music]
it's just a couple of kids do you think we'll find the treasure Willie well I
don't know but it sure can't hurt to try did you hear what that kids in
boy I'm sure glad we have that map you see this is where you watch the show

it looks like you had quite an adventure for yourself young lady and didn't quite make it to school well these kids were
lost and you know I had to help them lost well you did the right thing what
can we do to help them they want to hear that wonderful story you've told me about sailor Bill robbed the wreck of
the big ship and the survival with the gold medallion what about it Wendy one
of their friends is related to the man with the gold medallion I would like to meet this friend we'd like you to meet
him but we've lost him his name is Willie and my brother Henry is with him your friend's name is really
yes ma'am William he's my best friend sure the
diary says here his ancestors name was William - this is it all right this is
the diary of William topor I thought I'd never see it gather around and I'll tell
you the story just as wine dance told it to me the man who stayed William Topher's life
next time grandmother tells a story
[Music]
[Music]
[Music] do you remember the last time there was a new kid in school well what if the new
kid came to class in a box
[Applause]
now you probably wonder what the person inside was like maybe it's a girl maybe
it's a boy if you knew their name that would usually tell you the name might
also tell you if the person in the box was Chinese a Filipino or English or whatever but not always you might wonder
where they came from what their religion is whether they're rich or poor or even
if the person inside was good-looking enough now if you had the answers that
might put some labels on the box but you still couldn't see inside labels and
names that sometimes make us speak we already know what people are like but
when we don't know much about some people all we have to go on is what we've heard now some of that could be
exaggerated or just plain wrong we may
not even understand the things we do know about them if you are afraid of new
ideas or just don't know you could get boxed up with a bad case of prejudice

yourself who is a friend [Music]

looks for st*lks that eats decide who he talks to / he meets so what is it
elephant after walking all day ignored the monkeys because I like to play it we are like different things
it's true because we're all different I am aren't you
[Music] [Applause] we should be glad that we're not all the
same if we were we'd be playing a whole different game we'd spend all our time
trying to tell who is who instead of us learning about me and yeah
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
we're going to learn how to make tostones today and the stories are fried
plantains and in spanish-speaking countries we call them Platanos can you say that what's the difference between
plans and bananas they almost look the same except that plantains are considerably larger how come they're so
brown ok these got a little brown because we put them on the hot water what we do first is that you let them
soak in the hot water for a while it makes it easier to peel I'll put a slash
in them and then you can peel it down when plantains start becoming very
yellow they get sweet and you cook them differently than the green ones
plantains are a staple food in countries in South America and Africa they look
different than any yujeong just peel a regular banana well because the skin sticks onto the plantain oh
yeah I can tell this was coming off they're coming off pretty good here after they peeled off we cut them in a
in an angle a diagonal cut well the reason is that it exposes more of the
plantain to cook okay always be careful when you're using the knives not too
thick this is called a French cut forget another pot and we soak them for about
15 minutes we put it in salt water when you do this you put around 2 tablespoons
now I'm just measuring by I do want stick your hands in if y'all sticky oh
yeah that's a SAP it's in the plantain and usually will stain your hand
and I'm gonna get the oil heated up now what you do is that you put enough oil
so that you cover the plantains at least halfway so that's like a good amount
like half an inch of oil in the in the pot now whenever you get to this part
make sure that you're always with some adult because when water hits that hot oil it's going to really splatter fry
them we cook them until they're golden yellow his confused isn't even flatten
that one out if you got to do is just flatten it out a little bit like a like
a hamburger patty what we're doing here is now is we're finishing cooking it
[Music]
Tony's we can just put salt on it but we're in Puerto Rico we put a special
seasoning called Maho which is made out of garlic and vinegar and salt okay
let's try one I think when Tia you can
try it yours out when you got the time there's a lot of fun and when you're
finished you can eat what you've done [Music]
[Music]
well I just don't know what to do well Jay if you want the birthday party she
just ask your mom yeah I know pursue one I have it at my grandmother's another fashion I don't know if the key to
school or to go up there don't worry don't like it a lot of kids will go you
really think so then sure I'll go I just don't want to get a party and nobody
show up there how would you feel if you gave a party and no one wanted to come because of where you lived I would feel
sad I wouldn't like that person if they don't want to go my house I would want to go there
either I wouldn't care well if they couldn't visit me I wouldn't be mad or
sad I would just visit them how would you feel
[Music]
why don't you make a new friend make a new friend make a new friend today
