    It's so funny because I was reading an article about Mr. Zinn in a free Greek magazine "Lifo" (August 2010 cover) exactly 15 minutes ago. :) Awesome!

  • I wonder if he got to read it himself, or are these kinds of things released post-mortem? It's crazy to read about his Communist Party activities detailed like that. Communism is certainly not taken as much of a threat today as it was back then.

    the last 6 months have gone by so quickly. his death is such a huge loss. there are no dissidents of the next generation that are anywhere near as influential as he was. i love that man.

    CONservative governMENt

    Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis
