604: HISTORY PANEL: Time and Truth
Can historical “truth” be derived through narrative forms—literature, drama, film—that venture beyond the strict historical record? Using as an example the Abolitionist movement immediately prior to the Civil War, novelist Valerie Martin (Property); Victory Gardens Theater playwright Charles Smith (Free Man of Color); and Yale historian and Civil War-era authority David Blight consider the search for historical understanding. The moderator is esteemed historian Charles Branham.
