If you get The History Channel, catch the premier of The People Speak. Well-known actors play real-life folks who made history – based on Howard Zinn’s “A People’s History of the United States.” Very good so far.
Please share widely!
8-10pm tonight on History Channel: The People Speak
Looks great-I love Professor Zinn. I can’t believe he’s 87!
they may have edited the segment well. Nonetheless.
I was at 2 tapings of it at the Wilbur Theater last winter!
did he just stand and talk without a podium? I thought that was admirable.
his stance was amazing.

p>everyone was amazing. though people were in plain clothes and not in “character” sometimes they came so alive. Marisa Tomei was a standout and Josh Brolin too. Never would go to see John Legend in concert, but his “What’s going on” was chilling.
