The Time of Our Lies is a play written by Bianca Bagatourian that unravels through Howard Zinn’s personal story as a young bombardier and how his life was shaped from there as well as examining the stories of other soldiers and the horrors of war. It speaks to Howard’s message about how more peaceful solutions can be possible in these turbulent times. Above is a six-minute reading at La Mama Theater in NYC.

Truthout is funded almost entirely by readers — that’s why we can speak truth to power and cut against the mainstream narrative. But independent journalists at Truthout face mounting political repression under Trump.
We rely on your support to survive McCarthyist censorship. Please make a tax-deductible one-time or monthly donation.
