DIFF 2025 - Voices of a People’s History: The People Speak and Sing!

The works of Brooklyn-born author and historian Howard Zinn (1922–2010), particularly the classic bestsellers continue to shine a light on the extraordinary history of those engaged in struggles for freedom and justice in America. DIFF has found a meaningful partner in Voices of a People's History, a non-profit organization of artists and educators who seek to keep Zinn's message of grassroots egalitarianism alive.

On Brecht Off-Broadway), Niveka Hobaichan (Unlovable, Bittersweet), Mahima Saigal (Novel Romance, Evening Commute) and Haskiri Velazquez (Saved By the Bell, The Forty Year Old Version)
