About Howard Zinn

This rousing documentary uses Howard Zinn’s life to tell the story of political activism in the 20th century and beyond, from the anti-Fascist protests of the late 30s and early 40s, through WWII and post-war unionism, to the civil rights movement in the South, the Vietnam War, and Iraq. Zinn was an active participant in all of these movements, giving a white, academic, radical voice to people fighting for respect and justice around the world, often risking his own life and livelihood.
