Democracy is not a spectator sport. Using dramatic and musical
performances of the letters, diaries and speeches of everyday
Americans, THE PEOPLE SPEAK gives voice to those who spoke up for
social change throughout U.S. history, forging a nation from the
bottom up with their insistence on equality and justice. Narrated by
Howard Zinn and based on his best-selling books, A People's History of
the United States and Voices of a People's History of the United
States, THE PEOPLE SPEAK illustrates the relevance of these passionate
historical moments to our society today and reminds us never to take
liberty for granted.
