In a particularly disgusting development, Zinn’s deceptive & misleading book has been turned into a documentary.
“Premiere of The People Speak takes place at the Toronto International Film Festival
“Howard Zinn taught us to look at history with fresh eyes. His landmark book A People’s History of the United States, first published in 1980, has sold one and a half million copies around the world and inspired innumerable fresh approaches to reflecting on the past. Now comes a unique documentary collaboration between Zinn and others. They have enlisted an extraordinary lineup of actors, including Viggo Mortensen, Danny Glover, Marisa Tomei and Kerry Washington, who contribute live stage performances of historical testimonies.”
