Historical Past versus Political Present, 2000

By Arthur R. Butz ∙ July 20, 2000

Last updated on

In this video (1 hour and 21 minutes long) Greg Raven introduces Professor Arthur Butz, the author of the pioneering revisionist study The Hoax of the 20th Century. In his speech, delivered on May 27, 2000, at the 13th IHR Conference, in Irvine, California, Professor Butz talks of the historical past and the political present (in 2000). This speech by Professor Butz shows the brilliance of his pioneering work, which is a major step forward in rebutting the “holocaust” hate atrocity propaganda myth. His paper was later published in print: Arthur R. Butz, “Historical Past vs. Political Present,” The Journal of Historical Review, Vol. 19, No. 6, Nov./Dec. 2000, p. 15; https://codoh.com/library/document/historical-past-vs-political-present/.
