Repost from @youknownothing45 • On January 27, 2010, Howard Zinn- American author, historian, playwright and social activist passed away. Born on August 24, 1922, to working-class Jewish immigrants in Brooklyn, Zinn grew up in a modest household, an upbringing that deeply influenced his lifelong commitment to justice and equality. He served as a bombardier in World War II, an experience that profoundly shaped his anti-war stance and inspired his dedication to peace and human rights. Zinn’s most influential work, A People’s History of the United States, revolutionized the study of history by shifting the focus to the lives of everyday people—workers, women, Indigenous people, and marginalized groups—whose struggles often went overlooked in traditional narratives. Zinn believed in the value of history and that learning history should empower people, showing how collective action could create change. His work inspired generations to question authority, resist oppression, and envision a more equitable world. As an anti-war activist, Zinn was an outspoken critic of U.S. military interventions, always advocating for diplomacy and understanding over violence. His ideals resonate powerfully today reminding us of the importance of challenging unjust systems. He was a passionate advocate for democratic socialism, where resources and power were equitably shared, and the needs of ordinary people were prioritized over corporate interests. His commitment to justice, democracy, and humanity serves as a guiding light for building a better future. He rejected both unregulated capitalism and authoritarian socialism. Rooted in compassion and action, Zinn’s vision of socialism emphasized grassroots movements, labor rights, and civil rights as pathways to a more equal, just and humane world. In honoring Howard Zinn, we are reminded to tell the stories of those often ignored and to strive for a better world where power is rooted in compassion, fairness, and the voices of the people. Let his legacy inspire us to remain vigilant, informed, and courageous in the face of injustice even when it may be unpopular.

I have a long list of extraordinary women that I am going to teach my daughters about, these women are on that list! Words below from @tribuneuk 40 years ago, 11 Dublin supermarket workers walked out on strike to refuse the selling of South African fruit — an act of defiance that would make Ireland the first Western nation to ban apartheid goods.
