THE PEOPLE SPEAK DOC DEBUTS ON 12/13; SOUNDTRACK OUT 12/8

Using dramatic and musical performances of the letters, diaries and speeches of everyday Americans, The People Speak gives voice to those who spoke up for social change throughout U.S. history. Bruce Springsteen performs Woody Guthrie's "This Land is Your Land" in this new documentary, which premieres on the History Channel on Sunday, December 13.

Narrated by Howard Zinn and based on his best-selling books, A People's History of the United States and Voices of a People's History, the new film weaves archival footage and interviews with performances by actors and artists such as Springsteen, Bob Dylan, John Legend, Matt Damon, Eddie Vedder, Morgan Freeman, Josh Brolin, Viggo Mortensen, Danny Glover, Marisa Tomei, and more.

Soundtrack features Pink's "Dear Mr. President," and a new recording of "The Ghost of Tom Joad" by Springsteen.
