Free Movie Night

03/02/10


In memory of legendary social justice activist Howard Zinn, who passed away on January 27, catch the next screening of the Unblinking Eye film club, 'Howard Zinn: You Can't Be Neutral On A Moving Train'.

This acclaimed film looks at the amazing life of the renowned historian, activist and author. Following his early days as a shipyard labor organizer and bombardier in World War II, Zinn became an academic rebel and leader of civil disobedience in a time of institutionalized racism and war. His influential writings shone light on and brought voice to factory workers, immigrant laborers, African Americans, Native Americans and the working poor.

Featuring rare archival materials and interviews with Zinn and colleagues such as Noam Chomsky, 'You Can't Be Neutral' captures the essence of this extraordinary man who was a catalyst for progressive change for more than 60 years.

Narrated by Matt Damon. Featuring music by Pearl Jam, Woody Guthrie & Billy Bragg!
