Orson Welles Narrates an Animated Parable About How Xenophobia & Greed Will Put America Into Decline (1971)
More than 40 years and seven presidential administrations have passed since Orson Welles narrated Freedom River. And although it shows signs of age, the animated film, a parable about the role of immigration, race, and wealth in America, still resonates today. Directed by Sam Weiss, Freedom River tells the story of decline–of a once great nation lapsing into ugliness. Despite the myths we like to tell ourselves here in America, the ugliness has always been there. Xenophobia, greed, racism (you could add a few more traits to the list) are nothing new. They just tend to surface more during hard times, or when demagogues make it permissible, which is precisely what we’re seeing right now. Fortunately, Orson Welles’s narration leaves us with room to hope, with room to believe that wisdom will prevail and that people will find better options than what the provocateurs have to offer.
