Frontlines quick update on China's "Global Art Star"...

Dr. Henry Louis Gates presents "Black in Latin America", a new four-part series on the influence of African descent on Latin America, examining how Africa and Europe came together to create the rich cultures of Latin America and the Caribbean...

FRONTLINE sheds light on a little-known chapter of the Catholic Church sex abuse story: decades of abuse of Native Americans by priests and church workers in Alaska. The isolation of the villages and the absolute authority of the church over the Native population created an atmosphere where molestation could go unchecked and unreported...also an update of "Flying Cheaper," from January 2011 the investigation into the outsourcing of major airline repair work to lower-cost independent maintenance operations in the U.S. and abroad...as well as a follow-up on the story of Chinese artist and activist Ai Weiwei, who was taken into custody by government authorities days after FRONTLINE's March 29 profile of him, as part of a larger crackdown on artists, bloggers, and human-rights advocates...9pm
