Howard Zinn RIP
"You can't stay neutral on a moving train" - Howard Zinn
The radical historian, author of A People’s History of the United States, and documenter of some of the most important radical struggles in American history died yesterday aged 87. Zinn was active in the civil rights movement, the anti-Vietnam war movement and organising amongst academic staff. He was responsible for upholding the memory of a hidden history of American radicalism, and will be missed by generations of students and activists.
