Preferred term

Howard Zinn  

Definition

  • Rather early in his career, in 1969, Howard Zinn wrote that historians should be appreciated as activist-scholars and citizens with commitment to deeply held values. All his life, Zinn has been the very model of that kind of citizen, that kind of activist-scholar. [Source: Encyclopedia of Activism and Social Justice; Zinn, Howard (1922–)]
