A People's History of the United States

Just watched Democracy Now which devoted their one hour show to the life and teachings of Howard Zinn (1922-2010):

A Tribute to the Legendary Historian with Noam Chomsky, Alice Walker, Naomi Klein & Anthony Arnove
We pay tribute to the late historian, writer and activist Howard Zinn, who died suddenly on Wednesday of a heart attack at the age of eighty-seven. Howard Zinn’s classic work A People’s History of the United States changed the way we look at history in America. It has sold over a million copies and was recently made into a television special called The People Speak. We remember Howard Zinn in his own words, and we speak with those who knew him best: Noam Chomsky, Alice Walker, Naomi Klein and Anthony Arnove. [includes rush transcript]
