About the book
Recorded a month after 9/11, America's finest social historian examines the role and response of artists during wartime. With his distinctive blend of wit, an expansive knowledge of history, and a Sherlockian ability to uncover the real stories of beneath the detritus of corporate disinformation and monoculture, Zinn - through the actions and words of the likes of Langston Hughes, Mark Twain, Eugene O'Neill, Ford Madox Ford and Joseph Heller - explains that pride in one's country comes not from the words and deeds of the government, but from the actions of working people. 60 minutes.
