Fifty years ago today, dozens of Native American activists occupied Alcatraz Island. We’ll hear from people fighting to preserve their culture. Then, a popular 19th-century Japanese magician in the United States inspired one actor to tell his story on stage. And, we take a look at the natural world of Shakespeare in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park.
