at Unitarian Universalists of San Mateo
(see times)
PASMC will host a screening of Part 5 of Oliver Stone's widely acclaimed Untold History of the United States: "Eisenhower, The Bomb and The Third World".
Here, Stone focuses on the 1950's and the Cold War. We see how the U.S. relationship with the Soviet Union deteriorated despite our joint effort to win World War II and the death of Joseph Stalin. Nuclear weapons emerge as the U.S. develops the H-bomb - among other ways of rearming itself. American hegemony plays out in Korea and the Third World, and McCarthyism rears its ugly head. All of this takes place on the watch of President Dwight Eisenhower.
There will be an open discussion about the parallels between those times and these.
