What kind of a history teacher never heard of or cared about a false flag attack or lies anyway? The only kind I ever came across in my state-school instructions.
"Historian-activist Zinn dies" By Mark Feeney and Bryan Marquard, Globe Staff | January 28, 2010
Howard Zinn, the Boston University historian and political activist whose books such as “A People’s History of the United States” prompted a generation to rethink the nation’s past, died yesterday in Santa Monica, Calif., where he was traveling. He was 87, and lived in the Newton village of Auburndale. His daughter, Myla Kabat-Zinn of Lexington, said he had a heart attack.
“He’s made an amazing contribution to American intellectual and moral culture,” Noam Chomsky, the activist and MIT professor, said last night. “He’s changed the conscience of America in a highly constructive way. I really can’t think of anyone I can compare him to in this respect.”
Another professor I used to damn near worship.

Not anymore!!
WHO CARES, Noam?
Chomsky added that Dr. Zinn’s writings “simply changed perspective and understanding for a whole generation.” “He opened up approaches to history that were novel and highly significant,” Chomsky said. “Both by his actions and his writings for 50 years, he played a powerful role in helping and in many ways inspiring the civil rights movement and the antiwar movement.”
Then he and they failed.
And SINCE WHEN has the Globe ever cared for Zinn, Chomsky (won't even review his books), and the ANTIWAR MOVEMENT, huh?
For Dr. Zinn, activism was a natural extension of the revisionist brand of history he taught. “A People’s History of the United States” (1980), his best-known book, had for its heroes not the Founding Fathers - many of them slaveholders and deeply attached to the status quo, as Dr. Zinn was quick to point out - but rather the farmers of Shays’ Rebellion and the union organizers of the 1930s....
A controlled opposition revision, but you know.
Dr. Zinn was born in New York City on Aug. 24, 1922, the son of Jewish immigrants, Edward Zinn, a waiter, and Jennie (Rabinowitz) Zinn, a housewife....
Oh, THAT is why he made the FRONT PAGE, isn't it?
And WHY he DOESN'T WANT to TALK about 9/11, huh?
