Commentary

Howard Zinn’s work literally changed the conscience of a generation. It’s hard to imagine how many young people’s lives were touched by his work and his life. Both leave a permanent stamp on how history is understood and the conception of how a decent and honorable life should be lived. And the series of ‘people’s histories’ derived from this great work have provided new understanding of who we are and what we should aspire to be.
