People's History

If you haven't heard, the show "Voices of a People's History of the United States" is coming to Berkeley Community Center on November 9th. According to "Date Lines" of the S.F. Chronicle, the show created by Howard Zinn and Anthony Arnove will feature stars like Alice Walker, Aya de Leon, Sandra Oh, and others reading and singing from excerpts of Zinn's book. The show is a benefit for the Middle East Children's Alliance and Speak Out. I would definitely be there if I were on the streets.

Howard Zinn's book A People's History of the United States is the first history book I've read. It had awakened and challenged my mind. Everyone should read that book.
