Stories Hollywood Never Tells - Howard Zinn

Written by Howard Zinn
Format: MP3
Bitrate: 32 Kbps

What sort of view of our history do we get from Hollywood movies? Why are some stories told and others not? Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States helped to enlarge our sense of history to include the stories of women, minorities, labor struggles, and others forgotten or removed from official histories.

In this informal talk given at the Taos Film Festival, Zinn turns his attention to Hollywood, the stories it tells, and the ones it doesn’t. He tells the stories of wars from the point of view of disillusioned deserters, of the differences between All Quiet on the Western Front and Saving Private Ryan, of railroad strikes and the Haymarket Affait, Eugene Debs and the real story of Helen Keller, socialist and anti-war agitator. Mother Jones leads a march of 11 and 12-year-old textile workers from Pennsylvania to Roosevelt’s vacation home in Oyster Bay to demand better working conditions in the textile mills then at age 85 is thrown in jail for leading the Colorado Coal strike of 1913–14.

Howard Zinn is the author of the best-selling ”People’s History Of The United States” (over a million copies sold), and numerous other works of history, politics, and biography.
