Democracy Now! speaks to Dave Zirin, author and sports editor at The Nation, about his new book, The People’s Historian: The Outsized Life of Howard Zinn, chronicling the life and activism of the legendary historian Howard Zinn, author of A People’s History of the United States.
For Zinn, says Zirin, “being an academic was always secondary to being in the streets and making history, not just studying history.”
