🕑 Added 2022-01-12 15:58:45 +0000 UTCHailey and Aaron are joined by Peter Kuznick, Professor of History and Director of the Nuclear Studies Institute at American University. Kuznick is the author numerous books and articles. Perhaps most notably, he is the co-creator (with Oliver Stone) of The Untold History of the United States--a 12-part documentary series that first played on Showtime. There’s also an excellent book version of The Untold History of the United States, now in its second edition.
Hailey and Aaron discuss Kuznick's American University history course, Oliver Stone's America, with the professor.
Special thanks to Casey Moore for the episode art and Dana Chavarria for the sound engineering!

He's basically a New Left historian. He is a radical, but doesn't step on 3rd rails so much...

Hey Aaron I'm curious why is Peter able to teach his curriculum at American university. Wouldn't the school kick him out eventually.
