Video from Mr. Lazzarro's English 11
Mr. Lazzaro's English 11 students created examples of propaganda in response to Ayn Rand's novel Anthem. This video, created by Trevor Musser and Matt Benner, is modeled after vintage 1950's propaganda through the point of view of Anthem's Council of Scholars. Click here to see video.
