Winter Soldier

The Gene Siskel Film Center is showing Winter Soldier September 16-22.

To get to the info about Winter Soldier on the GS Film Center website click on "calendar" and then scroll down to the 16th.

Nearly unseen for over 30 years, WINTER SOLDIER is an extraordinary “lost” documentary of the Winter Soldier Investigation conducted in Detroit by Vietnam Veterans Against the War during the winter of 1971. Over the course of four days, more than a hundred veterans (including a young John Kerry) gave testimony of atrocities they had witnessed or committed. Their harrowing chronicle of rape, torture, infanticide, killing for sport, and other horrors makes the case that My Lai was not an aberrant episode but part of a daily, officially sanctioned program of genocide.

I'd like to organize a field trip for bloggers either Friday or Saturday night. Anybody interested?
