About the Book

La brillante y conmovedora historia del pueblo estadounidense para lectores de escuela intermedia y secundaria, ahora revisada y actualizada para el centenario del nacimiento de Howard Zinn.

La historia del pueblo de Estados Unidos para jóvenes cuenta las historias de obreros, personas esclavizadas, inmigrantes, mujeres, personas negras, latinoamericanos, asiaticoestadounidenses, indígenas estadounidenses y otros que comúnmente son excluidos de libros de texto pero que constituyen parte de la fuerza impulsora de la historia de nuestra nación. Comenzando con un vistazo a la llegada de Cristóbal Colón desde la perspectiva de los indígenas arahuacos, atravesando las luchas por los derechos civiles, derechos de los trabajadores y derechos de las mujeres a lo largo de los siglos diecinueve y veinte y concluyendo con los movimientos sociales actuales que exigen acción contra el cambio climática y justicia racdeial, Zinn propone una nueva y radical manera de comprender la historia de los Estados Unidos. Al hacerlo, les recuerda a los lectores que el camino de los Estados Unidos puede ser trazado por el pueblo en vez de los generales militares o los políticos. Esta edición revisada y actualizada incluye nuevos capítulos sobre la historia de los latinos en los Estados Unidos de Ed Morales, así como también actualizaciones y revisiones cortas a lo largo del texto de Rebecca Stefoff.

About the Author

Howard Zinn
HOWARD ZINN’s (1922–2010) great subject isn’t war, but peace. After his experience as a bombardier in World War II, he became convinced that there could be no such thing as a “just war,” as the vast majority of modern warfare’s victims are made up of innocent civilians. In his books, including A People’s History of the United States and its companion volume, Voices of a People’s History of the United States, Zinn affirms the power of the masses to influence major events. Through a lifetime of pointed scholarship and principled civil disobedience, he has led and continues to lead generations in the ways of peace. More by Howard Zinn
