So Apparently Howard Zinn Died

[SpazX]

Yesterday. I don't think there was a death thread for him in OT, maybe it fits better here.

Chomsky's boring-ass voice is still around for now though.

Any Zinn fans?

The man did great work, he lived a long fulfilling life.

Still sucks however.

A huge loss, but one that won't receive much news coverage. We don't read books anymore, we listen to pundits.

Big Zinn fan. His "People's History" pretty much forced a lot of people to question the stories we've always been told as Americans.

He's a tough read even if you're anti-nationalist, anti-patriotism, unhinged liberal that hates everything about your country.
