Video Title:
History Film Forum 2015 - Birth of a Nation with the History Guys
Description:
Live BackStory Show: THE BIRTH OF A NATION at 100 2015 marked the 100th anniversary of D.W. Griffith's controversial and monumental work, THE BIRTH OF A NATION. As perhaps the best example of the power of history film to affect public understanding of the past, the Forum examined the film and what it means a century later as well as what lessons we can draw for the creation of history film today. The discussion was hosted by Backstory with the American History Guys, a weekly, national public radio program and podcast produced by the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities, in discussion with artists, scholars, and the live audience.
