I had Zinns book as my American History book for one semester..... Don't remember fuck all from it but the teacher had to purchase them on his own.

Hey, Your discussion of "American Exceptionalism" in Episode 209 was the most cutting, spot-on critique of that idea I've heard in popular media. I sort of wanted to find twenty teenagers & pay them $15/hour to listen to an audiobook recording of Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the United States." The notion that we should provide our Best & Brightest - America's presumptive future leaders - any less than the most complete portrayal of our nation's history is perverse and a sure-fire path to intellectual decay. Omitting the inglorious parts of our nation's history is disingenuous, cynical, and counterproductive. High fives all around for stripping this bullshit proposal down to its backwoods, ignorant assumptions. GloryHole! H. Aggressor
