Wilson scholarly writings were a central part of the film. So despite not getting writers credit he contributed quite a bit of his own personal beliefs.
Calling him a writer was not correct but his writings and works were a major part of the film .
Glad we could clarify that ....
Quote:he screened The Birth of a Nation for the president on February 18, 1915 (the first film, in fact, ever to be screened in the White House). The film’s power and message reportedly overwhelmed Wilson, no doubt in part because his own scholarly writings figured so centrally in the film’s historical interpretation.
