Howard Zinn, 85, is a Professor Emeritus of political science at Boston
University. He was born in Brooklyn, NY, in 1922 to a poor immigrant
family. He realized early in his youth that the promise of the “American
Dream“, that will come true to all hard-working and diligent people, is
just that -- a promise and a dream. During World War II he joined US Air
Force and served as a bombardier in the European Theatre. This proved to
be a formative experience that only strengthened his convictions that
there is no such thing as a just war. It also revealed, once again, the
real face of the socio-economic order, where the suffering and sacrifice
of the ordinary people is always used only to higher the profits of the
privileged few.
