Thread:User talk:WaitingforGodot/The value of Zinn/reply (2)

I think Zinn has some of the same qualities of "history through women's eyes", and if there is such a book "history through children's eyes" or "black eyes" does. It's an attempt to refocus history away from (or rather, beyond) the simple dates and fact that are accomplishments of the few and powerful - and looks at how the lives of day to day live and effect their world. I admit, remembering I went to school when Zinn was still hip, I didn't know he was so damn passé.
