We're back with Evan of Left of the Projector for the third (maybe second?) entry in the History in Film series. This time it's 1960's Zionist epic, Exodus. Based on the novel of the same name by Leon Uris, this film aimed to convince American Jewry to consider the State of Israel (at this point, only twelve years old) as a nation deserving their investment, sympathy, and loyalty. Somehow, we've dragged along Sam and Gabe from Labor Jawn to slog our way through this three and half hour long piece of Zionist propaganda...at least we got a shirtless Paul Newman out of it.Primary Sources:In Vigilant Brotherhood by The American Jewish Committee - (see pg 64-70 for "The Blaustein-Ben-Gurion Agreement")"Is Zionism a Liberating Democratic Movement?" by Henryk Erlich"This is a struggle between the children of light and the children of darkness, between humanity and the law of the jungle" Tweet by Benjamin Netanyahu"שטיל, די נאַכט איז אױסגעשטערנט [Quiet, the Night is Full of Stars]" performed by Isabel FreyResources:Answer CoalitionThe Anti-Imperialist ArchiveIf Not NowJewish Voices for PeaceMiddle East Children's AllianceThe Palestine Children's Relief FundPalestinian Youth MovementLabor Jawn:Patreon: @laborjawnInstagram: @laborjawnTiktok: @laborjawnLeft of the Projector (Evan):Patreon: @LeftoftheProjectorPodTwitter: @LOTP_PodInstagram: @leftoftheprojectorpod Letterboxd: @lotppodMerch: https://leftoftheprojectorpod.threadless.comThe Intervention Podcast:Twitter: @intervenepodInstagram: @intervention_podEmail: interventionpod@gmail.comLevi Levi:Twitter: @levi0leviInstagram: @levi0levi0leviEmail: levi0levi@duck.comBig thanks to Plasmid for the music for the show: Instagram - @plasmidband.
