Howard Zinn on Race
Howard Zinn
Howard Zinn on Race is Zinn’s choice of the shorter writings and speeches that best reflect his views on America’s most taboo topic.

In “The Southern Mystique,” he tells of how […]

Retargeting Iran
David Barsamian, Ervand Abrahamian, Noam Chomsky, Nader Hashemi, Azadeh Moaveni, Trita Parsi
“ReTargeting Iran is not a travelogue about Iran but a facts-only objective account of where America has gone wrong, stupidly wrong—yet again—in its foreign policy, dominated by a mythical belief that Iran has an active nuclear weapons program. All one needs to know about the threat is this: as of mid-2020, the United States had […]
Whose Story Is This?: Old Conflicts, New Chapters
Rebecca Solnit
“In these times of political turbulence and an increasingly rabid and scrofulous commentariat, the sanity, wisdom and clarity of Rebecca Solnit’s writing is a forceful corrective. Whose Story Is This? is a scorchingly intelligent collection about the struggle to control narratives in the internet age.” —Alex Preston, The Guardian New feminist essays for the #MeToo era from the […]
Men Explain Things To Me
Rebecca Solnit
Rebecca Solnit’s comic, scathing essay, “Men Explain Things to Me,” went viral and inspired the word mansplaining. She took on what often goes wrong in conversations between men and women. She wrote about men who wrongly assume they know things and wrongly assume women don’t, about why this arises, and how this aspect of the […]
