- W285600273 abstract "Most people probably remember Howard Zinn (1922-2010) for his enormously popular People's History of the United States: 1492Present (1999), which became both a perennial best-seller and a frequently assigned alternative textbook in college and high school history courses. An even younger generation perhaps first encountered Zinu via his Voices of A People's History of the United States, edited with Anthony Amove (2004). The subject of many dramatic readings and a teleplay, Voices is a compendium of many of the speeches, articles, essays, poetry, and song lyrics that Zinn had used to enliven the People's History. In recent decades many people also came to know Zinu for his outspoken advocacy on a wide range of progressive causes, including civil rights, free speech, workers' rights, education reform, and opposition to U.S. imperialism. My own first encounter with Howard Zinn's special combination of scholarship and activism occurred several decades earlier, while I attended graduate school in the 1970s to study U.S. history. The first time I probably read Zinu was in a short essay, entitled Abolitionists, Freedom Riders and the Tactics of Agitation, in Martin Duberman's The Antislavery Vanguard: New Essays on the Abolitionists (1965). This essay guided me to Zinn's SNCC: The New Abolitionists (Zinn 1964), one of his first monographs. In his essay Zinn attempted to stress the parallels between the early nineteenth century reformers who challenged not just slavery but the pervasive racial prejudice of their society and the recruits to the post World War II civil rights movement. For several generations before the 1960s, it was common among historians to question the psychological soundness of white abolitionists, male and female, who promoted the socially subversive doctrine of racial equality (Harrold 2001). Zinn noted that previous scholars had scolded the abolitionists for their inunoderation, berated" @default.
