A Holy Outlaw

Article by Howard Zinn. The Progressive. February 2003.
"The long funeral procession for Phil Berrigan moved slowly through the streets of the poor Black parish in Baltimore where he had begun his priesthood. ...It was a bitterly cold December day in the kind of neighborhood where the city doesn't bother to clear the snow. People looked on silently from the windows of decaying buildings, and you could see the conditions that first provoked Phil's anger against the injustice of poverty in a nation of enormous wealth."

Zinn on Iraq and Other Pressing Matters

Howard Zinn interviewed by Bill Moyers. PBS' NOW With Bill Moyers. January 10, 2003
"Oh, sure. We were attacked, but then the question is, who attacked us? If we could locate the people who attacked us and get them, grab them, find them. Okay, that's self-defense. But if we are attacked and we don't know who attacked us, and we just select a country from which we think the attackers may have sprung, and then just bomb that country, that is not defense. That is indiscriminate violence."

Our Job is a Simple One: Stop Them

Article by Howard Zinn. The Progressive. December 2002.
"Democracy flies out the window as soon as war comes along. So when officials in Washington talk about democracy, either here or abroad, as they take this country to war, they don't mean it. They don't want democracy; they want to run things themselves. They want to decide whether we go to war. They want to decide the lives and deaths of people in this country, and they certainly want to decide the lives and deaths of people in Iraq and all over the Middle East. Faced with this attitude, our job is just a simple one: to stop them."

Zinn on Growing Up, Objectivity, Bombing, Media, Genocide, and Propaganda

Howard Zinn interviewed by David Barsamian. ZCommunications. November 1, 2002.
I remember moving all the time. We were always one step ahead of the landlord. And changing schools all the time. My father struggled, went from job to job, he was unemployed and under WPA. I wanted to get out of the house all the time. Where we lived was never a nice place to be. So I was in the streets a lot. I understand what it's like for kids to live in and prefer the streets. That's how I grew up.

Saying “No” to War

Event Broadcast. Democracy Now! • October 29, 2002.
ZINN: To go to war means that you do not consider the lives of other people as important as the live of people in your country. It means that you don't consider that the children of Iraq have an equal right to life as our children... It's important to confront that, and to confront other people with that.
