Review

hagiography of howard zinn. he’s been a more active activist (hmmm) than i thought. i always thought of him as more of a scholar than an actual leader in practice. apparently, though, he has been fairly active in politics since he was a young professor at spelman college in georgia. he was also in the air force during wwII. with documentaries like this the tendency is towards over-laudation, but that’s expected. it’s a decent portrait of an important figure in america, i just wish it had done more to flesh out his major ideas and contributions to our view of history.
