About Howard Zinn

I can UNDERSTAND pessimism, but I don't BELIEVE in it. It's not simply a matter of faith, but of historical EVIDENCE. Not overwhelming evidence, just enough to give HOPE, because for hope we don't need certainty, only POSSIBILITY.

  Bread and Roses Strike Anniversary

  This year is the centennial of the 1912 textile workers strike in Lawrence, Mass., also known as the Bread and Roses Strike. You’re unlikely to find much more than a mention of this important strike in a typical history textbook, if that. This struggle united mostly young women workers speaking dozens of languages in a dead-of-winter contest with some of the richest men in the United States. And the workers won. The Zinn Education Project offers materials for “teaching outside the textbook” about the strike.
