On July 4th, we feature a Democracy Now special -- a dramatic reading of legendary historian Howard Zinn’s classic work, A People’s History of the United States. First published more than a quarter of a century ago, the book has sold over a million copies and is a phenomenon in the world of publishing -- selling more copies each successive year. Howard Zinn gathered with a group of actors, writers and editors for a public reading of the book at the 92nd Street Y in New York. The cast included Alice Walker, Kurt Vonnegut, Danny Glover and many others.
