The libertarian world has been doing a good job writing and publishing in economics, history, and philosophy.  But to reach a wider audience, we need to go where the people are.  For one thing, people read much more fiction than nonfiction.  J. Neil Schulman’s Alongside Night is an excellent example of the possibilities for libertarian fiction.  And now there’s a move to get his book adapted into a motion picture.  Fiction writing and the movies are two areas where we are getting killed.  We’re not even putting up a fight.  A project like this can change that.

Alongside Night, with major endorsements from Ron Paul and Milton Friedman, its libertarian awards and rave reviews, and the intention of Free to Choose media to use the film in its teaching modules distributed to high schools, is an extremely rare opportunity to make inroads into the mass entertainment media.  It would be great to see people of means get behind this important project.
