The MOVEMENT and the “MADMAN” on PBS! Hear from the Producers and David Hartsough!

The MOVEMENT and the “MADMAN” shows how two antiwar protests  in the fall of 1969 — the largest the country had ever seen — caused President Nixon to cancel what he called his “madman” plans for a massive escalation of the U.S. war in Vietnam, including his threat to use nuclear weapons.   Remarkable archival footage and firsthand accounts reveal how you changed history!   We chat with: EXECUTIVE PRODUCER ROBERT LEVERING is a former business/workplace journalist.
