ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
“A People's History of the United States” by Howard Zinn offers a radical reinterpretation of American history, focusing on the experiences of marginalized groups rather than traditional political leaders. Zinn highlights the struggles and resistance of Native Americans, African Americans, women, and the working class throughout U.S. history. The book challenges the mainstream narrative of American exceptionalism, revealing how power, inequality, and oppression shaped the nation's development. Zinn emphasizes class struggle, colonialism, and systemic racism, aiming to provide a more inclusive and honest account of American history, often overlooked in traditional historical texts.
