Michelle Malkin on Howard” There is No Such Thing as Pure Fact” Zinn

The two most important questions for society, according to the Greek philosopher Plato, are these: What will we teach our children? And who will teach them? Left-wing celebrities have teamed up with one of America’s most radical historians to take control of the classroom in the name of “social justice.” Parents, beware: This Hollywood-backed Marxist education project may be coming to a school near you.

On Sunday, Dec. 13, the History Channel will air “The People Speak” — a documentary based on Marxist academic Howard Zinn’s capitalism-bashing, America-dissing, grievance-mongering history textbook, “A People’s History of the United States.” The film was co-produced and bankrolled by Zinn’s Boston neighbor and mentee Matt Damon. An all-star cast of Bush-bashing liberals, including Danny Glover, Josh Brolin, Bruce Springsteen, Marisa Tomei and Eddie Vedder, will appear. Zinn’s work is a self-proclaimed “biased account” of American history that rails against white oppressors, the free market and the military.

Sounds like television worth watching. Don’t be fooled by the fact that along with such insightful documentaries as The People Speak, the History Channel also brings America, on a nightly basis, such important history programming as The Nostradamus Effect and UFO Hunters. Perhaps that’s why Howard “There is No Such Thing as Pure Fact” Zinn, has found a home at the History Channel.
