A BUZZFLASH GUEST CONTRIBUTION

BuzzFlash is proud to be offering as a premium Howard Zinn's "A People's History of American Empire" [0]Illustrated Edition (Large Format Paperback). It follows in the tradition of his legendary "People's History of the United States: 1492 to Present." [0]

Zinn is an eloquent, erudite, accessible and persuasive educator about America's imperial ambitions.

Henry Holt And Company Publishers, who are distributing "A People's History of the American Empire" sent BuzzFlash the following short summary narrative of the book using illustrations contained within. Consider it a graphic novel, except that it's non-fiction and presents the case against empire.

Give it a watch: [1]

"In conjunction with the publication of A People's History of American Empire, a graphic adaptation of Howard Zinn's landmark, ground level vision of American history, Metropolitan Books has released a short video clip featuring Mike Konapacki's art from the book and narration by Academy Award nominee Viggo Mortensen. The 8 minute clip covers the United States imperial ambitions from the days of manifest destiny when Native American tribes suffered through what we would now call ethnic cleansing to the current military intervention in the Middle East."
