U.N. Has It Going On
Actors Danny Glover and Michael Douglas (second and third from right, respectively) were on hand at the United Nations for the April 15 screening of Showtime's original documentary series What's Going On? The 10-part series, which began on Jan. 19 on Showtime in partnership with RCN Entertainment, focuses on global issues such as war, hunger and the HIV/AIDS crisis through the eyes of children and is narrated by a host of celebrities including Glover, Douglas, Angelina Jolie and Laurence Fishburne. Glover is also a UN Goodwill Ambassador, and Douglas serves as a UN Messenger of Peace.
