Warmest Greetings!
I am so excited to share that readings from Howard Zinn's Voices of a People's History is coming to Portland.
For more information about this and other events, to view the Animated video of People's History of American Empire (voiceover by Viggo Mortensen), and/or to learn more of one of America's greatest visionary-truthteller-hero-Elders, you can go here: http://howardzinn.org/default/. I believe that there are still tickets available for this event. And the video is amazing. As is - and as always - Howard Zinn. Blessed be the peacemakers.
Peace ~ Molly
