Michael Parenti quotes Winston Churchill who said to his fellow party members: "History will be kind to us because I plan to write it." Far from being an objective account of events history bears the mark of its writer, the omissions of the censors, and the interests of those who benefit from making it. Parenti shows how to take the recording of history back from politicians, the media, professors, clergy, and business people.
