The People Speak

by Howard Zinn

First published 2004

Legendary historian Howard Zinn's People's History comes alive through the stirring words of the oppressed and defiant. From Columbus' callous disregard for the Arawaks to the sit-down strikers of the Flint Rebellion, these voices capture America's enduring spirit of resistance. Zinn assembles an all-star cast to give life to the plight of the forgotten, weaving a people's chronicle that challenges the dominant narrative. In this moving audio performance, the marginalized speak truth to power, illuminating how grassroots movements have driven social progress throughout our nation's tumultuous history.
