Description
Award-winning director/producer Gloria Z. Greenfield introduces her fourth documentary, The Fight of Our Lives: Defeating the Ideological War Against the West, with the warning that ‘Civilizations, empires, great powers can fall apart very fast. Collapse can come suddenly like a thief in the night.' In the ensuing 64 minutes, Ms. Greenfield's impressive cast of experts present a powerful argument that we in the West are facing a lethal threat to our way of life - to our Western culture and tradition. Whether we acknowledge it or not, we are in the fight of our lives against the greatest challenge of our time.... The Fight of Our Lives should convince you that action is necessary to defeat this clear and present danger. Our children must learn about Western civilization's humanism, Judeo-Christian morality, Enlightenment thought, commitment to separation of church and state, human rights, freedom of speech and religious diversity. The Fight of Our Lives reminds us that if we don't renew our ‘moral confidence' in our heritage, we will lose the fight." - Ziva Dahl | Daily Wire
