Howard Zinn: You Can't be Neutral on a Moving Train

Matt Damon narrates this biographical portrait of leading American historian, teacher and dissident Howard Zinn. Using historical footage and contemporary interviews, the controversial author of 'A People's History of the United States' is revealed to be a warm humanist and one of the most inspiring thinkers of our time -- a man about whom Noam Chomsky said, "it is no exaggeration to say that he has changed the consciousness of a generation."
