00:00Pero ¿qué opinas de la Constitución obliga a decir una palabra o dos sobre la origen de esto?
00:07Soy un estudiante de la historia de los americanos y hablo de muchos años.
00:10Señor Faiz, te interesa la pregunta solo.
00:13No vamos a tomar una lectura de un hombre que no se refiere a decir si es un miembro de
00:17la Comunicación de la Comunicación de este momento.
00:19No vamos a tomar una lectura de él sobre la Constitución de los Estados Unidos.
00:22Let's record show que el witness ha levantado su voz en contra de la Comunicación de la Comunicación.
00:35La Comunicación de los Estados Unidos
00:35Howard had a tremendous interest in America and a tremendous love for this country.
00:42And he wanted to know everything about it.
00:45And following that passion, he fell in love with the stories of how this country began.
00:54It's a wonderful way to learn American history because his ability as a storyteller, you know, you become unconscious that
01:02you're learning and it's like eating candy.
01:05That's one thing a historical model can do. It can tell us about the ideals we've fallen away from.
01:13There's one that is simple and if you won't argue about it, do you believe in the overthrow of the
01:18United States government by force of violence?
01:20You must refuse to answer that question.
01:22My father refused to give them the names and then got into a shouting match with McCarthy.
01:29I don't think everyone in this room knows this.
01:32Very few people know this.
01:34Why don't you give me a chance to state this?
01:36Write a book.
01:37I shall, I shall, and I have, write an author.
01:44Was held in contempt of Congress and sent to this prison for three months.
01:49In a way, the generation of the 30s that believed in communism because they saw it as a way of
01:55bringing back the ideals of America, the ideals of equality.
02:01And yet they were blackballed for their beliefs.
02:06When Howard was released from prison, he faced the blacklist and friends he had had for years were turning their
02:13backs on him.
02:14And no one would publish his novels.
02:17That's when he wrote Spartacus.
02:19So he decided to self-publish it and did all the promotion and advertising.
02:30I think his books should be read now because of their passionate love for what America might be.
02:41Not what America is, but the dream of America, the dream of what America could be.
02:48The truth is the truth.
02:50And there are some things in this life worth dying for.
02:57And sometimes you have to put it on the line.
03:02And here was a living example of a man who could, who had actually stood up and said, this is
03:10the truth.
03:12And you can't change that.
03:14My mind is free.
03:16Imprison my body all you want.
03:18But my mind is free.
03:21Imprison my body all you want.
03:34Imprison my body all you want.
03:38Imprison my body all you want.
03:39Imprison my body all you want.
03:39Imprison my body all you want.
