Renowned historian Howard Zinn has chronicled centuries of people’s struggles against oppression and economic exploitation in his “A People’s History of the United States” and “A People’s History of American Empire.” This week, Howard Zinn joins Bill Moyers to discuss the voice of today’s people in the shadow of big interests’ outsized influence in Washington. Zinn is a professor emeritus at Boston University, and co-editor of the new film “The People Speak” for the History Channel.

25 Years of Truthout: An important fundraising appeal

This September, Truthout is celebrating 25 years of publication. For over two decades, we have been a trusted source for fiercely independent journalism thanks to readers like you.

As we look to the next 25 years, we have launched a special fundraising campaign. Looking to a sustainable future for our publication, we have a fundraising goal of $100,000 in the next 9 days.

We are asking for your support at this juncture because we face greater threats than ever before in our organizational history. Trump and his MAGA allies are determined to control the information ecosystem, and movement-based organizations are subject to dangerous censorship and scrutiny.

If you can support Truthout with a one-time or monthly donation, you will make a significant impact on our work and our legacy. Anything you can do makes a difference!
