"Ron Jones talks about his haunting vision about fascism and tells what really happened in his classroom experiment "the wave.""
""Taped in San Francisco before a sold out Cowell Theatre whose audience included participants of the experiment and holocaust survivors, the one hour narrative reveals the events that led to the "experiment," and what happened to the class during and after The Wave. The "experiment" illustrates how individual freedoms can be quickly abandoned and willfully repressed for collective goals and racism as happened in the rise of Nazi Germany and the treatment of the Jews during World War II." -- Publisher's webpage."
"Author and former teacher Ron Jones recreates in solo performance his experiment in which he drills high school students in power, discipline, and authority to illustrate the development of attitudes such as those which allowed Germans to deny responsibility for genocide under the Nazis. Following, he discusses some of his experiences after The Wave, including at a conference of Holocaust survivors."
