The part of the speech where he spoke about civil disobedience was so inspiring. It's amazing to think that some of the most important movements in America have been created by the people - civil rights, unions, etc. I wonder if it's possible for more people to be infected with Zinn's passion for change in America...maybe if there's a draft the apathy in this country will be turned on its head.

I love Howard Zinn, he always leaves me with something to think about. I think his closing statements about carving out a piece of your existence that is devoted to being a contributing citizen are particularly poignant .
