Stories Hollywood Never Tells (Audio book)

Politics. Cultural Criticism. Compact Disc format. When Howard Zinn was invited to speak at the Taos Talking Film Festival, he took the opportunity to explore how films portray history -- in particular, why historical film so often mirrors an establishment view of history rather than portraying the past from the perspectives of people's history. It took me a while to realize that Hollywood isn't going to make movies that have the effect of making people more class conscious or more anti-war or more conscious of the need for racial and sexual equality... -- Howard Zinn, from the lecture. A CD version of a presentation based on his celebrated book A PEOPLE'S HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES is also available from SPD. 58 minutes.
