CommonDreams: "Howard Zinn may be a historian, but he lives in the present.
As demonstrators for immigrant rights made their way around New Haven on May Day, Zinn assumed the stage at the Center Church on the New Haven Green, stressing the need for youth to engage in activism, to understand the darker aspects of American domestic and foreign policy, and to distinguish between allegiance to a government and allegiance to a country.
'We need something better,' he said. 'With the situation we're in, we can't afford to have another generation that will go along with war. Or another nation that will go along with the nation's enormous militarism.'
Youth today need to recognize the presence of social upheaval in America's past in order to recognize the importance of activism, Zinn said, but history teaching has traditionally emphasized American unity while ignoring social movements and conflicts of interest that steered the country toward historical change."
