Zinn Education Project
Based on the approach to history highlighted in Howard Zinn’s best-selling book A People’s History of the United States, Zinn Education Project’s teaching materials emphasize the role of working people, women, people of color, and organized social movements in shaping history. The teaching materials are a valuable and great start to understanding what stories in our history are untold, or under-told.
