Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein
April 22, 2019
MidAmeriCon, the 34th World Science Fiction Convention, was held in Kansas City in 1976, with Robert A. Heinlein as Guest of Honor. With an introduction by Bob Tucker, this speech touches on Heinlein's belief in the inevitability of atomic war and his belief that mankind will go to the stars. There are comments on Russia and China, the role of men, and a few very bad jokes. If you are one of "Heinlein's Children", or simply a reader of classic SF, this video is an opportunity to hear that legendary figure. The material is brought to you by the FANAC Fan History Project, with video from the Video Archeology project. You can watch it here.
