{"value"=>"<p><em>History Detectives</em> is an hour-long PBS program in which experts, described as detectives, investigate historical mysteries. This episode, season 1 episode 8, features three stories, including John W. Cooper and his daughter Joan Maynard. The three questions investigated are: was the Lincoln assassination hatched in a Greenwich Village woman's house?; how did a Black ventriloquist affect early twentieth-century race relations?; and what's the story behind the Staten Island Historical Society's Civil War-era thirty-four star flag? Detectives include appraisers Wesley Cowan and Elyse Luray, Columbia University architectural history professor Gwendolyn Wright, and University of Pennsylvania sociologist Tukufu Zuberi.</p>"}
