It examines persuasion techniques in Chris Hegedus and D.A. Pennebaker’s /The War Room/(1993), Allan Raymond and Susan Raymond’s/An American Family /(1973), and Peter C. Rollins’ /Will Rogers’ 1920s: A Cowboy’s Guide to the Times/, referring to American culture and politics.

The inquiries delve into race, region and gender issues in Tracey Moffatt’s/BeDevil/(1993) and in the American Indian literary pieces: /Solar Storms/ by Linda Hogan,/How We Became Human/ by Joy Harjo, /The Way to Rainy Mountain /by N. Scott Momaday, and/Coming to Light/ by Brian Swann. This book includes a critical edition on a letter from David Palfreyman, Theatre Service Department, Motion Picture Association of America.
