For most of his 92 years, Osheroff threw himself into the fray with rare energy and enthusiasm. In this riveting documentary, Osheroff reflects on the meaning of that activism and the ideas that animated his actions. Osheroff's insights come out in interviews, footage of his engaging talks with students, and in a moving conversation with the legendary Uruguayan writer/activist Eduardo Galeano. Also featured is poet/essayist Martín Espada's reading of his powerful poem about Osheroff's life and vision. Osheroff, a truly organic intellectual, he shares the wisdom built up over a lifetime of commitment to the "radical humanism" that defined his politics and philosophy.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.
