Twenty years ago, Zinn and Anthony Arnove began organizing public readings of historical texts referenced in A People\u2019s History of the United States. The two would go on to publish a book collecting theses texts under the title Voices of a People\u2019s History of the United States. While Zinn died in 2010, his work continues to inspire millions across the country and the globe. Arnove and Hailey Pessin have just published a new book titled Voices of a People\u2019s History of the United States in the 21st Century: Documents of Hope and Resistance. It gathers more than 100 speeches, essays and other documents of activism, protest and social change. We speak with them about the book, and feature readings from texts featured in it.
