Noam Chomsky












Noam Chomsky
An entire political science course in 90 minutes, AMERICAN FEUD is the first documentary to trace the history of Liberalism and Conservatism in the United States. Designed to appeal to a general audience as well as students and political activists, AMERICAN FEUD explores the back story of a political system seemingly in crisis. It has proven very effective in provoking discussion and debate whenever shown and has been favorably reviewed in library review journals.
American Feud has been used as a membership premium on KPFK in Los Angeles. Click here to contact us about arranging to use Feud in your fundraising event.
